    Hmm after a little research, it sounds like it may be vanos related? Maybe a solenoid pack? I just had my vanos done a couple of months ago. I'll need to contact them, maybe get the car towed there. ugh.

    Hmm, drove the car today and was fine until towards the end of my drive. Wanted to have my friend hear my new CSL intake roar and made a couple of short sprint runs and was fine. Then all of a sudden car felt like it lost all power and the idle felt really rough. No lights on the dash. Ran it through my diagnostic software and I got the faults in the screenshots attached. Felt like a vacuum leak, but now that it says Camshaft timing over advanced or system performance and misfires on all cylinders, not sure what it is. ugh.

    Doesn't sound like a blown motor or anythign too, just a rough idle.

    Only thing that I did recently was get the CSL intake with Alpha N tune. Thoughts?
