Problems with the car....#1232
Well guys this has happened twice, and both times it has either rained or been raining prior to driving. Anyways sometimes one thing occurs and at all times the second phenomena occurs...ANYWAYS here it is....when accelerating in anything more than 3/4 throttle I experience basically what appears that the engine just complete goes idle then picks up and then idle again. Sometime when this happens the Service Traction Control DIC warning comes on, but for the most part no SES light or DIC warnings. So this cutting out usually hits when I hit about 3500+ rpms and the car has no reason for loosing traction as it happens in almost all gears except 5th and 6th. I have no idea what it can be, and today it seems to be having a hard time starting as well. I am thinking its a fuel pump problem but I am not seeing any SES or DIC warnings so I am clueless. Anyone experience this problem before?
