MY OPEL 2001 JS 2.6 V6 AUTO...WHEN I ACCELERATE QUICKLY OR KICK DOWN THE ENGINE DROPS REVS DRAMATICALLY AND GOES INTO LIMP MODE AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON.

SOURCE: traction control light comes on while driving in good weather

My 2002 Millenia just started doing this the other day, while on the freeway when it started doing it i would shut engine off and restart it and it would be good for a while then it would do it again, i am still looking for solution, has any one found one?

SOURCE: traction control comes on and off while riding

sounds like a faulty wheel sensor.

SOURCE: engine management problem

more likely throttle body problem. instead of paying maserati $6k for new one which will have sae fault after 6 months, email me as I recondition them at 1/3 of the price.

can send with DHL worldwide.

Hello and welcome to FixYa!

You have a new battery right? As a first course of action, please remove the positive battery connector and let it sit for atleast 10mins. Reconnect the positive battery connector and turn the key on ON position then OFF, do this 10 times and on the 10th crank the car. Take it for a few runs and observe how it goes.

Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!

Hello

The engine and the automatic transmission (transmission control is only for automatics, engine is still computer controlled no matter the transmission type) in this vehicle are computer controlled and in most cases when a fault occurs a fault code is stored in the memory of the computer control module. There are exception to this, such as the Mass Airflow Meter and fuel pressure problems. What must be done is to have all the basic testing done such as a scan of the system for fault codes as well as a check with a live data scanner tool for engine functions that are not within range of normal, a trained technician is required to know what is correct and what isn't, then based on careful diagnostics done from a factory repair manual the correct part is replaced or the wiring repaired or the computer replaced (known as the PCM), which is very rarely the problem. Other basic checks must be done as well such as mechanical problems with the engine as well as engine state of tune and mileage on the engine. The transmission can have mechanical issues as well such as no gear engagement at all or a failed pump or other pressure related problems.
