Check engine light, and 2500 rpm idle on spg... Posted by Jon [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() |
...I was driving tonight and in second gear i punched it, hit a little bit of wet road (someone was watering flowers or something and the water was draining onto the road) and went into a spin (tires, not the whole car thankfully) and i bounced off the rev limiter before i figured it out as i was approaching it @ the time that i started spinning to begin with. After i slowed down listening for weird noises expecting to have some delicate and/or expensive part to be broken, i noticed my check engine light was on, so i slowed a bit, then it went away, so i started to speed up again (not hard, just going back up to the speed limit) when it went on again, so stopped the car, @ which time the rpms were settling @ 2000, and very slowly increasing to 2500 which i noticed as i was thinking about what to do, so in my panic, i killed the engine, waited 10 secs, and started it up again, it has been fine ever since. Does anyone know what might have caused this and if there is a risk of damage or any possible damage that may already have occured?
THanks,
Jon
