Check for anything obstructing the air intake tract or the exhaust sytem. Could also be a heat soak issue.
Good luck finding the cause.

Without posting what DTCs you have, we would just be guessing as to what is wrong! Read and post your codes. If there are a tone of codes, clear them and take the car for a drive and see if you can reproduce the issue. When it happens. See if there are any DTC's.
If your not famular with the C5 Self Monitoring feature, here is a website that you can use!
