    Hey All,

    I have had a check engine light for quite some time, and now finally have the opportunity to do something about them. I have $1,600 at my disposal if need be, but I'm not sure what I actually need to replace to fix these issues. I got my car scanned at AutoZone today and they are as follows:

    16684 - P0300 - Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
    17521 - P1113 - Bank1-Sensor1 Internal Resistance too High
    17947 - P1539 - Clutch Vacuum Vent Valve Switch Incorrect signal

    While driving, the only issue I have is that boost builds and then when I hit around 3,200 rpm I seem to lose all boost and power. I can't floor it past 3 grand or it won't accelerate at all because it hesitates so bad.

    So far, I'm planning to buy:
    New MAF
    New Spark plugs
    New air filter
    New APR R1 DVs
    Samco TBB
    Samco F-Hose

    Any input is greatly appreciated

    take it to a dealer and have it diagnosed correctly, will save you money in the end instead of throwing the old "tune up" bag of parts at it. just my honest opinion...
