Vehicle Stutter / Limp Mode?
Hey, I was wondering if anyone else has experienced going into limp mode or a stutter whenever you redline.
It's not done intentionally but has happened a couple times where I was shifting at around 6000rpm and "accidentally" ended up at the redline in second and when I shifted to third, it would feel not only underpowered but also it would have a stutter or vibration that felt like I was riding over jagged rocks even though I was on a smooth road (Highway surface) I have to turn off the vehicle, then on, in order to correct the problem. I wanna guess it retards the cylinders but.. I don't know much about engines and whatnot. Maybe I should not get so excited while driving onto an on ramp.. |

Hi there
This also just happened to me today, is this just a safety feature or is it a bad thing? I thought it might be due to hot weather since it is 30 degrees celcius today..? Just to add, I was at WOT but not redline in 3rd gear and I felt a little stutter at about 5000rpm, so I backed off, then same symptoms as the first poster in all gears till I restarted my car... I have already had my boost pipes by the turbo replaced and my car only has 3200km on it, so im just a little worried... Thanks |

ok I ran some tests and the error was:
29CE: 29CE misfirings, cylinder 2 Error will cause a warning light Error is not currently present Event 1 Odometer 3264km 2028miles engine temperature 99.75 degrees celsius load value for misfiring detection 98.05% Engine speed 3328rpm Lambda integrator group 1 33.59% I have done about 30km since then and it seems ok, although I haven't really had a chance to drive the car hard to check properly, its been mostly driving in traffic. Any suggestions? |
