"Check engine light came on at about 87000 miles. Strong exhaust smell was constant. Experienced occasional drivability issues. Had to pay about 1500 for a dealership replacement. Aftermarket did not work. The emissions smell a bit better but the rpms still jump a bit during idle. Im not confident that the issue is gone but the check engine light is off."
