I have the same car and year. Both my lights flashed i bought it to my mechanic he checked my oil and said that when i got my car serviced at a cheap place they put in cheap oil. he hooked up his computer to mine and got an o2 sensor code. he shut the light off and changed my oil. all set. i also use premium gasoline and my car runs very good.

Engine runs rough at idle, and wont exceed 3500 rpm, ever.

Is this the 5-cylinder engine? Is the 'check engine' light illuminated on the dash? If the 'check engine' light is illuminated, does it ever blink while the engine is running rough?
