Reduced engine power, stabilitrak service, and traction control service showed up on my informations center. Cleaned the throttle body, checked throttle body wiring harness and other wires, checked the gas pedal connection, and detached the battery. Still no luck.
I can drive a few miles and the car acts fine, then suddenly the reduced engine power alert shows up and I can't accelerate over 40 mph. In one instance I came to a stop, the engine began to shake and the engine stalled. It took a few minutes for me to be able to start it.
I'm afraid to drive it to an auto parts store to get the codes since it may stall again, I also don't want to do any further damage to the vehicle.
Tempted to order a new throttle body assembly and install it to save some money, but there is no guarantee that it will work.
Any suggestions?
