Check your oil level, if your oil level is ok come back here and hit the search button.

woah, you have the same problem as me. When Vtec quits working, your in limp mode. the first thing i would check is your ECU. See, my problem is that my car wont let me redline to 7500 and it wont also hit vtec. My tach stops at 6000 and the engine responds to that, and then engine wont go any furrther than 6000. So if you do find out what the problem is why dont you hit me up too. My freind fucked with the gauges to install indiglos and now my car refuses to hit redline or vtec

did you check to make sure it was the same code? Which o2 code is it, there are a couple.
