The other day I noticed that once in awhile the car would kick a bit when engine load changed - it almost felt like a bad engine mount, but would only do it on occasion. Later on that day I came to a stop sign and the car went into limp mode. It had a hard time idling, it was hunting. It responded to the throttle just fine though. I pulled the codes and saw what was listed.
I checked the connector on the TB to make sure it wasn't taunt, unplugged and plugged it back in.
I checked measuring block 62 and all looked good. The pedal angles looked like what they're supposed to all through the pedal travel
I unplugged the MAF to see if that would make any difference and it didn't
I did a TB adaptation and that made no difference
I figured unplugged the MAF might have thrown a new code, so let me clear everything and see what's still in here. As soon as I did that the car runs normal. Did a 15 minute drive around town and it's still good.
I know something is going to die on me at the worst possible time so I'd like to find the root cause of this. Any guesses?
