Re: [vr6] Same problems....

Coilpack, maybe, yes, or could be a plug wire or plug, maybe even a fuel injector or two. Check the
codes, doesn't take more than a couple minutes so it shouldn't be expensive to have it done.

What's wrong with the door locks?

ABS light, could be the sensor, make sure the little wire running to your hub on the front axle are
securely pluggered and not rusted.

You might also try resetting your ECU to see if any of your troubles vanish... disconnect the
negative terminal on yer bat'ry for a couple minutes and plug her back in.

On the shifting to first thing, I'm curious to the cause as I have the same trouble.

Subject: Fwd: [vr6] Same problems....

I've had two window regulators fail ($300 a pop), a third one stuck in the up
position, CE light always on and off (coilpack? the car bucks when lightly
accelerating in 1st and 2nd), door locking problems, ABS light on for 8K
miles, Don Olson stripping wheel lock and key.  Other than that I love it

I have started to notice recently that some times my car won't engage into
1st.  I'll either have to push the clutch in several times or shift to second
and then it put it into first  ANY THOUGHTS?
