I am fed up with this. I have searched and searched but found nothing. All websites say that 36 is for the 1.8 liter. I have the 2.0 turbo, awd....

I swapped CAS, Coil Pack, and Transistor.. None of those seemed to fix it. It comes on any time below 3,500 when I am off of the accelerator pedal. Once I press the gas it goes away. My timing marks line up.

This all started when my harmonic damper took a shit on me. The car drives mostly the same as it did before, there is no huge power loss. Does anybody have any suggestions. Sorry for the language.
 
I've just changed the plugs and plug wires. Could this be a dying CAS? It'll start to come on about 5 minutes after starting/driving the car anything below 3,5000 rpm.. Once it reaches at least that rpm it'll go away. I've searched on at least four DSM communities, and I get nothing. I've also put in a better ECU. I'd really like to figure this shit before the shoot out.
