Default A strange thing happened this afternoon! I picked the car up and it is........

running smoother than ever. It always had a power dip between 2K and 3K and now that's gone. It is buttery smooth through the entire power band. In hind sight I now realize that it was running rough through the lower power band. I called them back to see if they had changed the plugs. I thought they may have left the shipping plugs in. They said no and that the only thing they did was swap the coils from one side to the other. Service manager thinks that they may have had some bad connections on the wires and disconnecting and reconnecting them fixed it. I really don't care what it was as long as the car keeps running great. :-)

Was it only in S-Mode or under sudden acceleration?

Default I had the same problem in my S4 a few months back.

The problem showed up one day and was there for a few months. Then all the sudden it was gone one day and hasnt been back since.
