Problem???
 

when i was driving today i was in 2nd gear and i had my foot on the accelerator(drivng normal) and all of the sudden my engine went all funny as if it just failed and the ABS light came ??i was like wtf it only happend for like 3 seconds then went back to normal...the feeling of it was like if your about to stall a car..

does anyone know what happend??? :icon_sad:

Mine did exactly the same thing today but it completly stalled was stuck on the side of the road for about 15 minutes. Wound up driving the car home in limp mode and turned out being the afm. Gave it a clean and repaired a cracked solder all seems to be fine ( For now )

Could also be the terminals on your battery mate.. They need tighten espically if you have springs or coil overs.. The clamps come loose meaning lose of power.. My mates did the same thing aswell...

Driving along and it dropped out then came back to life again.. Its pretty bad..

Check your afm as well though being could well be on a winner..

i disconected my afm coz i got a autronic ecu chip...so it could be the battery

if i disconect the batery will it reset my car meaning will i loose my tuneing done to it????????

hmm... if ya engine is already running, isn't current drawn from the alternator? and the connection to the battery is irrelevant? or does the car draw current from both battery and alternator? *confused*

mm someone correct me if im wrong, but im sure the car draws power from the battery no matter if the engine is running or not.
The difference being, when the enging is running, the alternator is continually recharging the battery?

You won't lose your tune if you disconnect your battery. The autronic retains the tune. imagine a computer HD, once its saved, you can shutdown anytime you want, the memory is still there

thanks man... anyway i cleaned out the battery and it was prity filthy there was batery acid everywhere..went for a run it seemed to run better...but do you recon that was the problem???

question:
1. is the abs light still on
2. is the check engine light (CEL) on now
