Overheating + cel

[lee07]

Not sure what happened but the check engine light flashes, goes away after a bit. The cruise control doesnt flash, i can still use it. Feels like its misfiring. Shakes at idle and poor acceleration.

Turbo side reservior was bone dry, though i just filled it. Radiator is full, the coolant reservior is full to the top and spilled a good amount out.

Thinking maybe the radiator cap

Has both mishimoto radiator and their cap

Drove fine before this, no problems at all

Misfire cylinders 2 and 4. Codes still there, but cel is off.

That's the sign of a gone head gasket. Don't drive until that's checked or you will end up with more problems and possibly also warped heads.

If the turbo tank is empty, you have air in the system now.

 

If your not sure what to do, have it checked by a good mechanic.

 

The overflow bottle should not be full to the top. One way for that to happen is compression has pushed the coolant there.

Misfires were the coil packs.

Coolant, putting on a different radiator cap tomorrow as some people online were having overheating issues with mishimoto caps. Hopes thats what it is here. Keeping my fingers crossed, as I do not want a bad head gasket, as that was done in 2009 and in 2011.
