Hey everyone! I wanted to post this thread to help anyone who is dealing with a problem I just fixed on my car.
So basically my car was having very strange symptoms that seemed like it was a boost leak. When the car was cold it ran completely fine.
Once the oil temp rose the car would fall on its face/jerk forward almost like there was a severe boost leak or bad motor mounts.
Along with that the car wouldn't go past approx 5k rpm. What was weird though is that the car pulled real hard when cold and didn't jerk
when I let off the gas (although I do not recommend doing this). I checked all of the plumbing for boost leaks and there were none at all.
So what was it?
Well it turns out that the Vehicle Speed Sensor was cracked in half and filled with water. Oddly I didn't get a code right away but one
eventually showed up. This was causing the car to go into a limp mode (for some reason only when warm). Changed the sensor and
now the car is perfect. I hope this helps anybody who is having the same problem.
I searched everywhere for an answer and couldn't find one.
Cheers!
P.S. My car is a stage 3 frankenturbo car with Allroad BEL Motor. Made 450whp on pump gas, no meth.
