Hey All,
I just had a new pop up screen come up saying "Check Manual". After I cleared it with the "OK" button, there was an open wrench icon on the right side of the gauge cluster.
During this, I found I had almost zero acceleration. Even when the transmission downshifted, the RPMs went up but almost no/very little acceleration power. When I got home,
I did a key cycle. After restarting, the icon went away but I didn't drive to see if the power was back. This all started after I did a 20 - 95 full throttle acceleration.
I went to the PDF manual but couldn't find anything relative. Any ideas?

Thanks

Have you scanned for error codes? even if it reset, it should still be listed.

See if it threw a code and pull it.

Thanks, I'll check for a code on that. The CEL was already on and I had yet to check for the previous code. Don't know if it's affiliated or not but if it isn't, I might see 2 codes.
