Jdot-Mattinson Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Has anyone experienced a trophy glitch with Pluggin Away? I thought I got all the spark plugs in the game, but I didn't get the trophy. I went back through all the levels that have spark plugs in them to make sure I got all 3, and I did in fact get them all. When I am choosing to move from one city to the next, it will show me a message that says I have 2/3 gold events complete, or 10/11 gold events complete, etc, but there are no events left to complete. I have no idea why this happened. If anyone knows of a fix, or has the same issue, please post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lil_Mermaid_Girl Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Sparkplugs are located in all of the gold events. Make sure you've completed all the gold events and got all three sparkplugs from each event. I have it listed in my road map what are all the gold events, so maybe check to make sure you completed them all? I didn't have issues with this trophy.

Wasted a couple hours loading and reloading races thinking I missed one...I hadn't put the game for a few weeks frustrated...decided to get it out this morning and just start a new game with the intention of only collecting the sparkplugs Grabbed the 3 plugs in sprint 1 (very first race of the new game) and the trophy immediately unlocked and consequently my platinum too as it was all I needed...give it a go and post here if it worked for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raz_lintu Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 One of the races was messing up for me and wouldn't save the last plug, but I tried the starting a new game trick and it popped right up thanks for the idea, never would have thought of it ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berts08 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I have also the same problem, I have collected all the sparks in each gold race and no trophy. Im going for everything else now and I will try what is mentioned when im done. Its also saying 2/3 gold events complete, I have no gold events left so it is a glitch.

Michmach Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 It did not work for me. I have a 100% complete save (to get all other trophies) and then a save with 96% where I only raced the gold events to get the plugs. Got all the plugs for the second time and still no trophy. I even started a third game and raced the first race to no avail. FRUSTRATING! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donkeh Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 hmm, i have same thing...so you say you need to start a new profile? and start story mode with the race 'Sprint 1' ? And then collect all 3 plugs...? I tried that, and nothing popped up for me...I also trid replaying Sprint 1 on my 'old' profile that says 100%...but all 3 pictures of the collected plugs were already displayed when the races started.

hermdog006 Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I got the glitch too. After reviewing every single race I found that Road Race 1 wasn't saving no matter what I did. I tried the posted trick...it didn't work for me. The only thing that worked was starting a new profile and winning every gold race all over again. Once you get good, it should take more than 1 to 2 hours to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadaim357 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I had to start an entirely new game focusing only on the plugs. Ended up working thank god. This game gave me an aneurysm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukey52 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 strange... my game says 10/11 gold medal events completed but thankfully the spark plug trophy didn't glitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diskdocx Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I'm stuck on this too Only have the cart races left and the sparkplugs to get platinum. Same issue with every location showing 2/3 or 6/7 or 10/11 - even though I have completed every event. Will try the new save trick and keep fingers crossed. I do not want to restart this POS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diskdocx Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Done and done! Finished the Kart races, then started a new save, finished first race and both the pluggin away and platinums popped! Great tip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbo1337 Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I thought my game had glitched until I went back through all the sparkplug games and discovered I was missing one from the early maps. It pays to doublecheck every one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brrnout Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 (edited) LAME! The trick didnt work for me. Its sooo frustrated I am in no mood to do all the plugs again Edited September 21, 2010 by Brrnout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brrnout Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 (edited) HAHA! I figured out why some are getting the trophies with the new profile and why others aren't. It HOW you make a new profile! At first I quit the game and restarted and made a new profile, but it didn't work. But when I left my good user and went to the main menu and made a new user inside the game. It remembered everything from my other profile! Then when I got all three plugs in the first race I got the trophy and the platinum! Someone else try it. I wanna know if it will works for others! Hope it works!

simboes Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 question for you lot. Had you guys updated the game anytime recently? Just wondering whether the glitch is due to an older version of the game and if it had been fixed. If I get the same glitch i'll try your method . sounds like a winner. Completing the same game again because of a glitch is always lame. Happened with me and Burnout paradise, glitched on a license trophy, had to go through and do the game again. so LAME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
