Hey guys,
This just happened on my way home, though yesterday I noticed a few hard feeling "clunk" esque vibrations when at idle. They were arrhythmic but reminded me of a misfire. Then today after a run down the freeway I felt the clunks and they worsened quickly. No check engine light, but by the time I got to my driveway the car was definitely mad. It was literally chugging. I suspect coil failure, but still, no check engine light. The thing sounds like a damn marine diesel right now. I don't dare drive it anywhere. Power is gone, vibrates like mad, very rhythmically.
I am a proficient enough mechanic to change a coil or vacuum hose, but these engines are pretty complex. I don't know where to start, honest.
Thanks for all your help, I need to get to work tomorrow!
