Hey guys,

i was driving the car today and as i revved up to 4k rpm the power dropped off, i got the above engine warning light, the power significantly dropped until i got home, i drove it 2 hours later(no engine warning after restart) and it was fine until i gave it hard acceleration and the exact same problem reoccurred. the car has 57k miles.

i wont be able to have it looked at until next week, any ideas on what could be the issue?

thanks in advance for the advice guys :)

    Update on this, my issue was an intake turbo hose that slipped off and just needed to be tightened back up, simplest fix imaginable :yahoo::yahoo:
