    Rain SUCKS!!

    We had the biggest downpour yesterday, borderline flash flooding, and I was driving around in it.

    Today, I drive my car up to the mall and as I'm heading back the engine dies, and is very hard to start back up. I get a reduced engine power light and SES. I thought "oh ****, what now?" Turns out all the codes it threw were related to air/fuel, sensor voltage, throttle position sensor, idle control, voltage, etc. I took it in to the dealer (it LIMPED in at like 30-40 tops,) and they're going to look at it.

    I just hope the PCM isn't screwed or something, I'm sure this has to do with all the water.

    well, did you drive through a large puddle when it died? if not, I doubt it has to do with it. The rain has been great. Tornado though my town wasn't much fun though

      No, it wasn't an immediate 'drive through the puddle, then it died' kind of thing. It drove fine, then it was dry today and it just died. Oh well, I'm just kind of glad it's probably not a mechanical issue.

        I would take a mechanical issue any day. Electrical are a beyotch to find.

          Well, I was just relieved my motor isn't FUBARed. That's really what I was referring to. I'm hoping they can knock this problem out.

                ^^^^That's one of the many things it could be. Who knows? Honestly, it had so little power I couldn't tell if it was shifting funny or not, I got it into 3rd I think, going downhill, LOL.
