03 SE Power Loss

Greetings All,

 

I’m a new member and looking for some help! Today while driving my 03 SE, I experienced a loss in power. The car suddenly felt like it was running on 30% of normal power. I shut off the A/C and pulled over. No knocks, pings, or miss fire was noted. I popped the hood and gave it a once over, and all appeared normal. I Shut the car off (in hopes to reset whatever was wrong) and after restart the problem hadn’t changed. I limped the car to a dealer, got a rental and was told they will look at in the morning. I got the standard, “you have to pay for your rental, $89 dealer diagnostics speech” as well. I purchased the truck in October (CPO), maintained as recommended and have no problems other than this to date (50k on the odometer last oil change yesterday). Thanks in advance for any advice, tips, or words from a similar experience. Any help on diagnosing this issue would be appreciated.

 

Drive Safe!

Nice Pathy, I wish it was that easy. Toggled all, and no miss fire. FYI Air filter looked good, and car idled normal. Oh yeah nothing but 93 octane since I purchesed that car. Thanks for the reply

Thats strange... I really wonder what would cause it to bog down like that.. some sort of blockage? did the SES light come on?

I was having some issues with a few stalls, and running rough on and off... couple days ago felt like i was losing power on the highway. turned out to be the EFI relay.

No warning lights at all. I don't get it, the dealer will get to it today, I'll post the results. Thanks.

Although I had a warning light - it was totally unrelated... was bad timing.

the service engine soon light is for emissions related problems (in my case, the 02 sensor)
