My 40th Anniversary cuts out at 3300 RPMs

greg370z · 07-25-2011, 02:14 PM

Has anyone had any experience with their 370z's (40th or other) engine cutting out at around 3300 RPMs? It will not go higher. It is slightly overdue for an oil change, which is happening now. It was fine yesterday, went to drive it today, and the problem started. Any ideas? Is it some sort of "preventative" thing since the oil may have been low?

Was the oil low or just past the point it should have been changed? I'm pretty sure there is no system on our cars that will save the motor from low oil besides the idiot light on the dashboard. It sounds like your car is going into "LimpMode" How is your oil temps with this happens? Does it happen all the time or only after you have been driving for a while? Did you perform any mods recently? We need more info man!!!!!!!!! LOL.

Mine did this, aswell as a long cranking time.. they replaced the crank pos sensor and the problem went away.
