ok, just got back from the dealership, which gladly took my $90 just to look at it! anyways, said i had a misfire in the 1st cylinder. everything is fine now. computers ran a check and things are back to normal.
possibilities he said:
-elevation change from CA to UT
-timing belt if off (just had it replaced 4 months ago, so there could of been an error in installation)
