Well, thanks for saving me that money! I was thinking it was the clutch too.
Im glad I just read this, yesterday I had TC off and rolled off from a set of lights then planted it and it bogged down, had me scratching my head, I mean it pinged off the rev limiter, wheels where spinning for abit then bogged down.
Did you ever figure out this issue? I hope so, been almost two years. If I had read this sooner, I would have tried using a vacuum on the brake master cylinder to see if maybe you have air in the clutch system. Sometimes a scary issue can be a simple fix. Might have been a clutch hydraulic issue.
Can’t speak for him, but for my issue, it still remains. I feel like it has to be engine-management related, like maybe the intake manifold runners causing the little stumble. My car runs great, but if you take off at fairly low RPM this is pretty much always present.
These cars have sensors on everything, so an engine problem can possibly have nothing to do with the engine. Try holding down your traction button until "Advance Trac off" appears. That is different from advance Trac sport mode, and is different from just pressing the button once for a split second. Holding the button down turns off your traction control completely. If your car senses a loss in traction, it will kill your throttle. This will just be a test to see if the issue is traction-sensing related.
That document just explains what a 'crank relearn' is, and how a dealer tech can do it with IDS. But how the heck can you do it yourself? If somebody knows, please post the procedure in detail. I don't think my car has that, but would like to know
. Thank you.
I can only speak for certain on the NGauge, but I would think most tuning devices can perform a crank relearn. The NGauge is handy because it can be mounted in the car and can do crank relearns, access data, and scan for codes. It's almost worth having even if you don't have a tune to load.That document just explains what a 'crank relearn' is, and how a dealer tech can do it with IDS.

Finally, the better question is why can a stock engine 'forget' those parameters, if the engine wasn't replaced, ECU disconnected, etc? That's weird, no? I'd understand that on a tuned engine, since the ECU needs to be disconnected, but not on a stock one. I was thinking it could be regular fuel causing a timing retard, but it shouldn't be doing that every time, even if that was the case, right?
