Too PO'd to be searching for answers so dont come with that BS. when i first got my car it was the same way it is now and i switched the ecu and it started driving fine. do i just need to get flashed(whatever that means)?? or do i need to replace the ecu again?? the car got like this after being in a shop for a wheel bearing change, brake pads, and steering wheel swap.

    try disconnecting the battery, it would reset the codes. Maybe the shop drove the hell out of it and the car went into limp mode...
