Had my 2015 GT out yesterday, drove to destination 40 miles no problems, all fine.
On the return - 100Deg heat (if that makes any difference) The acceleration and pick up started to hesitate, then lag altogether. Dropping revs when I put my foot down, yet drop a gear and it would pick up the revs again (Manual).
I have an NGauge attached and ran a quick diagnostic after pulling into a Gas station to fill up, thinking it may be a fuel issue.. It has thrown Error Code p061a. 'Internal Control Torque Performance' No dash lights or MIL. I did manage to limp home, lifting off the gas and then back on for 2-3 seconds until the power loss cut in.
I have recently changed rear end Gearing from 3.73 down to 3.55 - Without any ForScan setting changes or mods.. But - I have ran 600+ miles since the install and various sources say that a simple change like that should have no effect.
Usual Search brings up:
P061A FORD Possible Causes
Any ideas where to start..? If others have had this code, what were your symptoms..?
The List seems to be somewhat 'Vague' as to possible causes.
