  1. Hi I have a 2001 Is300 and right about now im not too happy with it. It has 70,xxx miles on it and its and e-shift. It has some crappy 18's on 40 series falken's. It also has an injen intake and some retarded red painted covers on the engine and arm rests and cupholders. Im the second owner I believe and the cel stays on all the time and blinks when i come to idle or get on it hard. I have had the rims and tires balanced but it shakes a lil bit at 35-40 and up. Its not that big of a deal on smooth roads, but on less than smooth roads its annoying. The codes it is bringing up is multiple misfire codes on like all cylinders and o2 sensor. Also, the driver side headlight periodically decides to go out and stay out for a period of time. It is very inconsistent and hard to diagnose when and why this happens. Are these problems anyone else has faced and where should i start to fix the problems. I took it to the dealer and that was a HUGE waste of 95 dollars as they told me to they were going to do a 60k service and if that didnt fix it than they were just going to start replacing things. Anyways I bought a set of plugs and wires to start with and any other recommendations would be great. I need any help you can give me whether it has to do with the vibrations or the headlight or the cel codes and TRAC OFF light blinking on and off. I want to sell the car and get something that can actually drive in the snow because im moving to michigan. I thought i had problems with other cars driving in the snow; you might as well park the IS when the white stuff comes down because that car is useless in the snow even when im using 225 pirelli snowsports. Anyways thanks for any help you can give me! God Bless You!
