Hi all, this is my first post in the forums and would like to start with a problem. My 98 se is just weird. Somedays it drives normal without fault, but others its quirky. On the quirky days, at startup you cant go straight to reverse because it will shut off, I first have to switch it to neutral then I can go to reverse. I do have the dreaded knock sensor code and also an evap canister valve stuck open code. Also after starting with the go to neutral first method, it drives weird for a bit. Rough idle surging then all of a sudden dieing at stop lights, But I just shift back to park and re crank and it runs fine. I also notice in the first 45 seconds of driving a weird jolt and noise coming from the front. but after it does that once it doesn't do it again for rest of drive. Also noticed it was down on coolant so I replaced that and it took about a quart of oil yesterday also. Sorry a lot of problems for my first post but my mechanic gives up because I have left it with him for a full week and he hasn't had nay problems. Any suggestions as to where to start. My pathy has 183xxx and I have recently had distributor replaced and did the radiator this summer.
