Yes Salim, I am driving with my windows closed 
I will get the tires rotated, aligned and check the tires too. I had that in mind as the last option for this coming weekend. Since the car had been sitting idle for about 2 months, before i started fixing everything.
i dont know, maybe you are right, i still feel it is not like it use to be before I pulled all these things out to fix oil leak and clean the throttle.
1. Took the timing belt, serpentine belts, crankshaft pulley and camshafts out to fix the oil leak from the cam seals and replaced the camseals.
2. Took the intake manifold and throttlebody out to replace the spark plugs and stop oil leak from the the Valve covers front and rear to replace the Valve Cover Gaskets and clean the entire throttle body out. to clean the MAF sensor and the IACV.
3. Took the oil pan out to replace the oil pickup strainer and the oil sending unit and placed a new gasket for the oil pan.
So Now i am left with no options but to drive the car as it is.
I think i will take it to the dealer and let them scan the entire engine and point me what is wrong with it.
No offense to anyone, but you guys are too good, cause without your help and the wonderful posts you have out here, i really got motivated to do the work on my own, I am not a mechanic, but learnt a lot of things so that at least i can take care of minor repairs on my own cars. Again marvelous jobs and hats off to Salimshah, Lemex, Carguy077 and all others who have spent time to help everyone. I wish we can all be like them and help each other.
Cheers!!!!!!!!!!!!!
