Hey guys,
so long story short i finally got my car back from someone hitting me in an accident about 6 weeks ago, all cosmetic and safety system related, new hood bumper, air bags, etc.... Now its back and its got some problems. First off before the accident happened my car was throwing code P0153 for slow to respond o2 sensor. Now its back it still throws the code naturally but the cars is sputtering and bucking under load (any more than 1/4 throttle) and the idle sounds funny and just overall the car isnt performing and hesitates alot.
I had the car checked out immediately and the OBD scan tool came up with no misfires or anything like that. So im stumped it sounds like a misfire or vacuum leak? Could it be related to the bad o2 sensor? Could it have something to do with the fuel system? The car is going to my shop of choice tomorrow but im really looking to get and idea as to what the problem could be so my wallet isnt surprised when it hopefully gets fixed
Thanks
