    It's more a small engine problem than a Mirage specific proble..

    The guy has 18 posts, 1 is this one and another trying to sell the car....We can keep making guesses until he replies, mine top 3 are his brake lines are rattling, he accidently put 91 octane in it, or cabin air filter is dirty.
    Brake lines are tight, I ONLY run 91 octane in my high performance vehicles and pretty sure there is a rat in my cabin air filter.

    I have been putting shell 91 in it lately to try and clean out some gunk. Maybe something broke loose? Lol

    Every 3k miles, with the engine oil, just like my Jiffy Lube technician said is required, should I do it more often?

    Is that a joke? Give serious answers if you want a solution to your problem.

    Just for sharts, have you ever checked out the connector behind the kick panel.


    And I've never had any fuel injected car flood before. But just about once a week I have to deal with a flooded Mirage. So I'll have to say it's a Mirage problem. I don't start airplanes very often and haven't seen one flooded lol

    I'd find out what abs code is stored then go from there.

    It was just an ODB reader. I need to get the proper codes read.

    I did the suspension :P and the heinous crime of talking about replacing it...

    Nothing in the port.

    I had LED that made this go off before, I went back to regular and had the dealer reset the codes and it went away. I checked to see if any of my lights are out and I don't see any. I forgot to check my brakes though... Need to do that.

    Which connector do you mean? I did not check that.
