Holy crap I just found out San Diego had a big earthquake this morning. A whopping 5.2 mag. I hope no one was hurt.

so last night i drove my car home and everything was good. this morning i turn it on and back out the garage. as i leave the driveway the car experiences sudden power loss. it's like it went into limp mode. drove like that the whole way to work. don't know what it can be?!?!

eek that sucks. Did you clean your air filters recently?

no, but i doubt they could get dirty that much over night unless i sucked in a trash bag in my intakes. i looked but didnt see anything like that

Did you accidently go into valet mode on uprev?

i didn't have any additional maps put on my uprev tune... from what i know when in valet mode you cant rev past 3k? i was able to rev past 3k and i usually shifted at 4-5k range because it was so slow

well shucks and a wazoo. Im out of suggestions. Sorry man that sucks

Stop by local auto parts store and see if there's a hidden DTC thrown :twocents:

yeah i plan on going as soon as they open

Home, sweet home...

Isn't it like 9 am there? Most of the ones around here are open by 6:30 am.

:hello:

The Advance Auto stores in my area have quit reading OBD II codes and I wouldn't be surprised if all Advance stores quit providing that 'service'. The company did a survey and 95% of the employees felt it was a waste of their time. Auto parts store started offering that 'service' in the hopes that it would translate into sales. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. Most consumers wanted 'free diagnostics' (what is wrong with my car, I'm too cheap to go to a real shop), we would sell them a part that caused the light to go out. Well, after a ton of complaints that what we sold them didn't fix their problem (the light stayed on because they didn't know they were supposed to clear it), we (the employees) were told that we could read the DTCs and tell the consumer that the code represented the 'circuit' that had a problem, not necessarily the part. While I 'might' know what is causing your problem, I get $8 an hour to plug a device into your car; while my expert opinion on what is causing that problem, will cost you considerably more than that ($100 an hour). :rolleyes:


I don't have a lot of sympathy for people that want to drive 'high end cars' (Lexus, Infiniti, Acura) that are 10 years old and want me to troubleshoot their car for $8 an hour. :gtfo2:
