Weird power loss

jeudi 1 septembre 2016

My car felt like it was down on power today. As in, its 40-60 time was almost what its 0-60 time should be. It also felt like there was a very, very slight stutter here and there at WOT. There's no CEL though, and the car starts eagerly and idles fine.

It was just at the dealership for the airbag recall this morning. They said what they did wouldn't have affected the engine, though.

My first thought was that maybe the weather was making the engine run hot. It's warm and humid today, fans stayed on after shutdown, etc. But I've definitely driven the car hard when it was hotter out, and I don't remember the car exhibiting these symptoms. Though, thinking of it now, I don't know if the car has seen this combination of hot and wet (hehe) while I've owned it...

Any thoughts? As of now, I'm leaning toward just continuing to drive it and seeing if the problem persists. However, if there's anything I can check myself without an OBD reader, I'd like to do that.
