I think just maybe, your engine has a problem.Check engine=CHECK THE ENGINE instead of just wondering why.Check your oil for starters. Your cars in limp mode buddy.Get that **** checked out before you ruin a good motor.

To the OP, first thing pull the code, dont just reset the ecu, pull the code and post that.
