:( Guys, while this may sound obvious and it is NOW, when and if you replace your spark plug wires yourself, MAKE SURE you put all of the brackets and bolts that hold them off your engine back on! I replaced mine with some of those red 8mm wires and must have forgotten to put on the new ones the bracket or whatever holds them off of the EGR tube and you guessed it! Melted the sparkplug wire and then shorted out the coil pak. $338 later!!!!!!!!! I had my upper and lower intake manifold gaskets replaced at the dealer after I replaced the wires and am chasing the dealer to reimburse me since they should have put them back right when they did that work. Not holding my breath though. BUMMER!!!! :cry:
