Can you save scans with the actron? If you can, go out and replicate the problem while logging a scan and post it to scan depot- that would make it a lot easier.

Make sure you record fuel trims (so we can tell if its starving for fuel), gear, etc- all the normal stuff.

 

Yeah thats what we suspect. The cat isn't getting hot seems okay from the outside.

 

Now it appears to only happen between 2000-3000 rpm. The very second you hit 3000 rpm it takes off like normal. And when you take off from a dead stop it moves and sounds normal till 2000 rpm then it bogs barely making it to 3000.

 

it could be a bad cat. one of my friend had goten a nissan and the cat had to be replaced. it did similar thing to what you described and it took forever to get up to speed.

 

can u log ignition with your scan tool?

 

I lost my CD with the software for my scanner, I sent actron a mail hopefully they will send me the software.

 

i am having the same problem. i just thought it was the car because i am a new owner, but then someone was talking about it and said it should take off. but after i get to 2000 rpm it bogs and you can hear/see/feel the rpms jump..it is kinda hard to get on the express way in the morning sometimes.

 

They aren't going to let me download the software. I saw in another forum a guy lost his software and they sent him download through email. I guess they are hurtin' for money.

 

My cat was restricted and i lost power between 4000 and 5000, take it to the dealer if its under 80k miles it will be under warranty. mine feels like a speed restricter kicks in under heavy accel from 4-5k

 

Maybe you could look at the main sensors while you're scanning and post up what is happening with them then. I would bet almost 99% that those sensors readings will tell you exactly what is wrong, its just a matter of reading the right ones and interpreting them correctly.
