wut the hell does this mean? i got code p0301 on the obd2 reader. how bad is this? i haven't noticed any power loss, and my a/f meter is fine. i'm also turbo'd, does that have anything to do with it? will the dealership rape me on this? under warranty? thx guys.

warrenty! HA! The dealership will **** on your face if you try to make a claim.

My advice would be, check your injector, and plug, it could be something easy.

plugs, coil pack, injector. In that order.

And, yes, bring vaseline. The dealer will be delighted to tear you a new one since you turboed your car. Congrats, btw.

worst case scenario it's an ECU. start with the simple things. check your spark plugs. see if number 1 looks "different" than the others. replace your spark plugs if you think it could be that. if that doesn't work, swap the coil pack from 1 to another cylinder. then see if the misfire still ocurrs in cylinder 1 or if it moved with the coil pack.

if it is still in cylinder 1, do a compression leakdown test. if cylinder 1 reads fine, then it's your ECU.
