I have replaced the coil packs, spark plugs wires and injectors, but the engine codes still comes up as the same codes before I replaced them and my car. Won't go over 35 miles per hour. Codes comes up with p1404 p0270 p0304 p0030 and everything has been changed but still does the same thing. Please help.

Hi,

Let me layout these DTCs first.

P0030 - Bank 1 Sensor 1 o2 sensor malfunction
P0270 - Cylinder 4 injector circuit malfunction
P0304 - Cylinder 4 misfire
P1404 - Leak detection pump circuit malfunction

Start with the P0270 code and go through that testing. I suspect that is the cause of the others so if we fix that issue then we will fix the others.

Are you familiar with how to test for open circuits and shorts?

Here is a guide that goes through the basics:

Please let me know what you find or if you run into issues and we can walk through this but unfortunately I suspect you have a wiring issue so we need to go through this testing. Thanks
