MacW Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Sounds like the clutch might be slipping. Although tbh it's tough to read when you're shouting and not taking a breath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 i'm confused, is the CEL light flashing, or are you trying to make it flash? if it is flashing, don't drive it the engine is proper bolloxed, if your referring to the Traction control and stability control and you want to make the lights flash, turn off traction control. to be honest when pulling away, you shouldnt have any flashy lights apart from the TCS and ESP if you have to much power and your spinning the wheels. when you stab the throttle hard, are you keeping your foot on it or is it just a jab, if the revs are dropping it might be because you've taken your foot off the pedal. also remember the car throttle is drive by wire so no throttle cable, the car will self adjust to what it needs etc. but admitedly what you've written makes no sense what so ever.

andlid Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 after some reading you seem to havea problem with the pedals timing resulting in the engine light not starting to flash after 12 seconds? (the easy method) It does sound like you got a slipping clutch. Can you try and put the car into a higher type gear and go uphill somewhere and see if the car starts slipping on the clutch? Search for 'easy ecu reset' and you'll find following that will be 100% better and easier then the normal one.! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
