[QUOTE="waahehe94, post: 976377, member: 16219"] Your car sounds like it was doing exactly the same thing that my car was doing last year.When I first started it up it ran fine but after a short drive it would feel like it was down on power.The check engine light would come on intermittently and go then go off while I was driving the car.My car was throwing a code 181 and 189 which are Adaptive Fuel rich limit reached at part throttle, right side and Adaptive Fuel rich limit reached, left side.It turns out my mass air meter was giving a false reading causing my car to think that it was running lean so to try and correct the problem my computer was actually making the car run too rich.I fixed my problem with a new mass air meter, but without knowing what codes you have stored there is no way of knowing if that is your cars problem also. The best thing that you can do, like stated earlier, is to either pull the codes yourself or go to an auto parts store like Auto Zone and have them hook up their scan tool and pull the codes for you.I know that all of my local parts stores have some really nice scan tools that can pull codes and diagnose problems and they are willing to do it for you for free.
