On Saturday I put my car back to stock tune and put the 2bar back in, as I have my emissions inspection next month. No problems until this morning when dropping my kids off at daycare, I noticed a huge plume of white exhaust and the check engine light was flashing (which I know is really bad)! It was running rough, but I thought it was because I was driving slowly up a hill and sometimes I have shifting issues, especially after re-flashing.
I left the car running while parked and noticed both exhaust pipes were furiously shaking and there was still tons of white exhaust. I shut if off, dropped the boys off, came back, and the car was hesitant to start, but after a few seconds it finally started. No more white smoke. Solid CEL. Drove to work with no issues. Went out about an hour later and started with no problem. No white exhaust and no shaking. Still solid CEL. Checked oil and coolant; both looked fine. I can check for DTCs with the livernois tuner when I get home.
The symptoms seem like a misfire, but it seems odd that it came out of nowhere and it hasn't continued. I might drive it around during lunch to see if I notice anything else. Any ideas on what this could be?
