Well the engine was not running, but he had accessories turned on (to the 'on' position). Without that there was no response from the engine.


So the service is well worth the cost? My light came on at 45k and i doubt the spark plugs have ever been changed. Could this be the reason for a slight delay between me pushing the gas pedal, and the engine responding? Or would that be a ECM/Throttle Body problem?

A little bit of Lag will always be felt on these cars. Since there is no throttle cable and it is all electronic. It workls slower that a throttle cable. It takes a second to get the signal there.

I would say it is worth it.
