OPTI, I don't know really. It just seems like 80% of the time its the opti with these cars.

Before throwing money at the opti, it possibly could not even be the problem, check the coil and icm, those two can go out. Check the car for codes, if the opti dies it will trigger a DTC, so scan the computer for codes. Hate to see people waste time and money on the opti when it was just a bad coil.
