- 2012 Mazda 3I Skyactiv
[SOLVED AT BOTTOM]
I was getting onto the highway at about 5.5K RPM(3rd gear), lost power, check engine light started flashing, traction control light as well, smelled something burning, couldn't tell what it was. Killed the engine, started up a few minutes later, ran like normal. I was pushing it pretty hard, wasn't constantly redlining though. Only engine mods I got are Corksport SRI, Corksport Aluminium Crank Pulley and Corksport Power Series Exhaust.
2012 Skyactiv 3. Obvious answer is to grab an OBD2 tool and see what codes I get, but anyone got any idea what happened? Won't be able to head over to do that for a few hours. It's been running normal since that happened yesterday, although I have been taking it very easy. Consider this my "hi, I'm new" post
[SOLVED] Turns out it was a misfire code, cleared it out, apparently I was pushing the Skyactiv Engine to hard, I'll be trying to find a solution to sort of, beef up the tolerances(Better Spark Plugs?) I guess so it can handle more aggressive driving.
