    Have your problem diagnosed before you just 'get a tune-up'. Automatically thinking a tune-up will fix your problem is not the first step. You may pay a ton for a good comprehensive tune-up only to find your car runs marginally better and/or the problem still exsists.

    Agreed in theory with Tyreguy...however... Replacing spark plugs and coil boots is not a bad start if it has never been done or has been an eternity.

    Figure about $329 for the plugs, and $15 per boot...so...maybe $419?
