Anybody encounter this failsafe mode yet?
 
Sitting at a stop light, goes green, go to take off, and anytime I gave it throttle, it went into an instant rev limit. Persisted between quick restarts. Had to let it sit off long enough for the ecu relay to click off, restart and it's been fine since.
No SES light.

Need to take it in for service and see if it threw any codes. Just wondering if anybody has encountered this yet.

What was your oil temp?

grahfz 11-16-2009 08:40 PM

It was fine. Actually, it had just been sitting for over an hour too.

Were you inducing the traction control?

yeah if it was traction control then it's normal because that s**ts set up for old women.

No seriously, it was NORMAL driving. It was an error produced by the ecu. Possibly not reading one of the sensors, like the pedal or the MAF.

Have you felt the traction control pll pull power before? Maybe one of the sensors sent a bad signal and the car decided to hit traction control.

There is no doubt that I've felt traction control before.
Have any of you felt the rev limiter before? They're two different feels/responses.

This was a limiter.

What RPM's were you limited to? There's a rev limiter that kicks in if the ECU doesn't read a gear selected in the gear box, 4500 rpm I believe.

about 1500-2000 max.

That's major limpage. Not sure what event would limit you that low, even with VVEL disabled you can get to 3000 rpm.
