so today i was backing up in reverse and gave it a little gas and where our gas milage and tire pressure is it beeped and said engine power reduced. i drove off and had noooooo power at allllllll wtf. i turned off the car and started it back up. the signaL came up again but the car felt like it had the power from before. got home, restarted it again and no signal came on. im worried, is this limp mode, and will my car be ok.

 

i had this awhile back it was because my engine was too hot

 

will it be ok

hello anybody got any advice

 

Gotta have a code to get any ideas.

 

this ******* **** came on again only in reverse im pissed

 

it happened to me and the idiots have had mine for 3 weeks.

 

possible pcm/throttle body issues

 

i just got my yune so mabey it was that trifecta

 

i called onstar and they told me it is my fuel pressure regulator solenoide 1 has low voltage. i noticed when reduce engine power comes on my fuel pressure goes down to 72 psi. where is the fuel pressure regulator and it prolly disconnected or something. any help please

 

have you used a ziptie to hold down your charge piping?

 

what do you mean i have aftermarket injen piping

 

well when you had stock piping did you use a ziptie cause it would pop off?

 

dude your in the wrong area and no it never popped off lol

any ways back on topic wheres the fuel pressure regulator

 

im saying i got the same code but i guess you dont want any help....so too bad. p0091 right?

 

its not a check engine light its in the dic area with the tire pressure and instant gas milage it come up and says REDUCE ENGINE POWER then in my rpd my fuel pressure drops to 72 psi when im supossed to be running like 600 more at normal idle. the car hass noooooo power. onstar said im not getting any fuel to my fuel rail do to low voltage on the fuel pressure regulator solenoide......... so he said there is a loose wire. i asked him if it was my check engine light and he said noo that i have a check engine light do to not haveing a cat. soooo the wire is loose. reduce engine power comes on when it wants to or when ever its reading low voltage.

 

he was just asking a simple question, easiest things cause the biggest problems.. just sayin.

 

i know lol i just thought he was lost lol jk its ok if i sounded like a dick sorry didnt mean it lol soooo any advice

 

Hope this helps, no personal advice, but people around these parts can be very helpful. I just searched and found a few threads, sorry if they do not help.

i know exactly whats wrong but hes just bein a dick.... theres a wire mesh to the righ of your charge piping and theres 1 little wire that seperates and goes to your fuel reg..... check it i bet its rubbing on the metal frame....

there you go....next time dont be an ass https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/08-10-ss-turbocharged-general-discussion-152/%2Azip-tie-mod-warning%2A-167772/

 

I'm having issues picturing where the area is your talking about bro???

 

thats on the drivers side next to your engine there will be a black bracket and to the right of that will be a cluster of wire

 

I'm gonna find that and preemptively strike that **** lol. Cause my CP moves alot under load I noticed so im sure its rubbin on something...

 

so went to my techs shop to install my hks bov and i asked him about the reduce engine power, so we went on the fourms and red this post and for sure he was right the yellow and purple wires were chafed on a black bracket and were cut open, so we protected the wires and tapped them up. i earlier i did apologize and sorry again you were right lol

 

sweet man. good to hear

 

so is everything fixed??
