(and if your Area does emissions testing timed with your vehicle registration Renewal, your aveo WILL FAIL, and will probably prevent you from legally driving your aveo until it gets fixed.) and when I said wires, I meant the Spark Plug wires attached to the Ignition Coil Pack. and there's a few people on here that have had the P2135 code come up, and they had to replace the entire throttle body (2006 was when they changed over to Electronic Throttle Control, meaning there is no physical link between your foot, and the throttle body; its all done electronically via an Accelerator Pedal Position sensor sending a signal to an actuator on the throttle body, opening and closing the throttle valve, which dictates engine speed.)
So, you think that even though our car is NOT throwing a misfire code, that it's still misfiring? I said misfiring earlier in the post because it idles up and down and the car kind of "jolts" every once in while... (I'm thinking I worded it properly by saying misfiring?) Too, do you think the blinking light and throttle body problems are related? At this point I'm just trying to narrow it down to tell the mechanics what could be possible issues... because I don't want to try a million different things in parts and labor before getting it right.
