Sudden loss (about .5 sec), of power on freeway. . .

The "check engine" light came on, then everything was back to normal. Any suggestions I can educate the dealer with?

Happened to me...

At about 130mph, in empty Montana on I-90 twice in a row. Never found out what it was, nor did it ever come back...

Good luck,
- Stan

Me too. . .

Happened to me too at about 85 mph. Also never came back. I posted a question about a week ago and didn't get much insight other that stanj telling me it happened to him also.

At 130 it would be the speed limiter (which shuts off gas). At 85 no clue. (Rev limiter?)

It was definitely NOT the speed governor, that feels different (I know)

What exactly dictates when the speed limiter will kick in?
