Clear your codes.

Replace plugs first with NGK BK6RE. If it doesn't fix it, try swapping your coils around. If the problems stay with the same cylinders then you probably have a bad ignition control module. If they move with the coils them replace those coils.

washer fluid, of course. Is it a leak or is it just a little wet? Your headlight washers might be getting some of the fluid past and behind the headlight or something.

Talking

Never used the headlight washers, either they don't work or I don't know how to use them. Well how do you use them?
