Not only that, but the coilpacks in 2 out of 3 cylinders have split rubber and there's some oil on the spark plugs in those. I had a P1124 and P1126 CEL, but don't think they relate to this and am betting more on AOS or dirty MAF for those. I did sense a slight hesitation at 4k, so perhaps this is where that's coming from.

I'll definitely be replacing the spark plug tubes. Can I replace just the two coilpacks that have split rubber, or is it necessary to replace all 6 at the same time? Would prefer to save money where possible as this last week has been expensive.

Thanks
