370Z engine trouble, no power, bairly revs

GonGo · 12-28-2014, 08:05 AM

This happened to me once, 2013 nismo.. Car would barely rev above 4,000. I power cycled the car and everything went back to normal. Hasn't happened again in a year. I captured it on video if you want to compare. I was told at the dealer there's an ecu reflash pending for some 2013's, not more details available so im a bit skeptical.

I also have dropp ins. Afe

Power cycled? Is that a ecu reset? Definately a good idea to do,op.

Sounds a lot like my symptoms with barely reving above 4,000.
I'll check to see if there's something clogging the filters as soon as I can. I'm guessing a power recycle is resetting the ECU by unplugging the battery? Is there any other way to reset the ECU? I don't have any tools at work but could easily unplug the battery when I get home.
