Have a 2007 SRX, problem is that gets very sluggish. comes right only when I remove the battery terminals and reset the computer. after a few rides it reverts back to being sluggish and has little power. I have to really put foot down to make it move, what could cause this. I have taken it to the dealers and they cant pick up a fault. please help.
The fact you say that disconnecting and resetting the computer tells me the following::
This sounds like it is going into "Limp mode" a mode the computer puts the vehicle into when it detects something is wrong , or sometime is programed to do this when the vehicle is way overdue for its service, I would suggest that you take it to a reputable dealer and ask them to read the computer to see what fualt codes are showing , this should help solve the mystery or at least point you in the right direction.
The onboard computer is forcing the vehicle into the "Limp Mode" your dealer yould know this and should have checked the onboard computer first
