Description of the problem | The car runs great for about 5-10 miles and then the epc light comes on and the car loses power and runs at idle speed. Replaced np 80 sensor and evap canister, cleaned throttle body and it still happens. Car lunges forward at times. I'll pull over, shut it off and then it drives fine, then the light comes on again. Apparently this has been happening to a lot of people. Took it to the dealership and they just gave me a bunch of costly repair recommendations but no definitive answer. |
