Hey there lately when im driving my rx my car seems to drive fine for a bit and then out of nowhere when it feels like it my car will bog out and lose power until I let off the pedel.





Now when it starts acting up like this which is totaly random by the way I have to very lightly feather the pedel to accelerate... One thing I noticed is I look over at my boost gauge (not stock) and it only has a hiccup and power loss when I get past 10 vac, although I let off the throttle and it will let me slowely feather it again but for some reason not past 10 vac.





Im starting to get frustrated becuase it does it at random times and will drive perfectly fine for a while and then start acting up again, a couple times it would bog out so bad that I would be reduced to driving 15km on main roads which is really aggrivating and I want to get to the bottom of this but need some possible suggestion. Thanks to anyone that can help.

check ur grounds thats probly your problem just searh for hesitation and youll get mad results and the sould be a write up

well I already did check my grounds except for the ecu ground so im gonna check that one out later when I have a minute at work.....





thanks

Mine of course being a NA is quite different, but I had a hesitation and grounded everything including the ecu and man what a difference with the vehicle, much better than before, I have to say I was shocked at the change

lemme guess, its at 3800rpm. if its around 3200rpm then you're looking at secondary injectors possibly being dirty/clogged/loose wires as thats around when they kick on.

No not exactly that would be too easy.....



its starts happening at any rpm and anytime it feels like it its not even close to 3000rpm. It usually starts doing it when I first start the car or after a short period of driving and doesnt allow to press the gas even the slightest bit over a light feathering. If i do press the gas more it doesnt respond at all just bogs and no response what so ever for the throttle until I let go and slightly feather it again but if I press just that little too much, total power loss.



So when my car is cold in the morning after 10 minutes of warming my car up I try to drive and some days it will respond others I cant even get it over 1500rpm with it completly losing power and bogging until I let off.... I could hardly leave my parking lot this morning, bogged hardcore down the street 100 meters and then pulled over waiting a little bit, popped the hood and tightened my throttle cable as it was a little loose and it started working again about another 100 meters down the road.



Im get really frustrated because I need to make it to work and I just cant get to the bottom of this.

check/adjust your TPS.

I just recenetly (2 months ago) had my tps set....



Could Me moving the throttle cable around messed with the tps?

if its not in the just right position the cable could be sticking, or getting pinched etc.

has to be in a perfectly smooth arc to the tb, no tight turns or tucking it between things.



kevin.

Its in the exact stock position so It should be fine....



But I had some time today and built a code tester and ran the codes and the throttle sensor code came up so there is something wrong with my TPS, I just find it strange how it comes and goes....
