My cousin got the same thing when his aftermarket Throttle body got stuck wide open. It goes into this mode with something like this happens so you don't die, or mess up the engine more.

Hi,

I faced the same problem earlier with the K&N filter.
Check the filter bolt with the throttle body for air lockage (Mine did came off because I did not bolt it tightly)

I had that problem last winter. It turned out to be my throttle body sensor.

P-1000 = OBD readiness test not complete
P-2106 = TAC system forced limited power
P-2135 = TPS/Pedal position Sensor/Switch A/B Voltage correlation

This is what my computer program says it is. It is for 2003 and older cars , but it should be the same anyway.

here`s another idea for ya.....

Use your diablo to clear the codes.
Unhook your battery for 15-30 min and see if it does it again.
If so......DEALER TIME!
