Failure Date: 11/05/2005

My car was sluggish and losing power upon taking it in for servicing I had five of eight coil on plugs replaced by dealership, not more than one week after my car started the same symptoms and had an clicking noise in the engine. I was told buy the dealership that their diagnostic equipment was giving them false reading, one saying that the car was alright, and the other saying that it wasn't.
