R34 Gt-T Stalling.

[R34 4 Door]

Hey im new to this site, so bare with me. My 34 has been playin up lately. while im cruising along, the tcs & slip light will light up on my dash by itself, followed by the engine light, then it will start to lose power & stall slowly, so i have to pull over on the side of the road, then i will start the car back up, sometimes it has trouble starting again, but when it starts again i can drive it again. this only happens now & then. not all the time. it really pisses me off tho. my 34 is auto by the way. Is my AFM playing up? please help. need this fixed asap.

Sounds like your coil packs

Nah. ive replaced them for brand new yellow jackets, bcoz at first that's what i thot, but still the problem occurs. Im guessing its the AFM. Anyone else had this problem, please tell me. need help. just don't see why the TCS & slip light comes on by itself on the dash when it starts to play up. weird....

I don't think the AFM playing up would bring on the TCS&SLIP lights on...

I've had this exact thing along with many others on here and it's been the coilpacks everytime.

I have also had 2 out of my 6 new yellow jackets fail on me

You could get a diagnostic on it and check to see exactly what the engine light is telling you.

I've taken it to the auto electricians. they did the scan while they were cruising & when the car was dying they saw that the AFM was at fault. so im guessing its the AFM. Ive got brand new yellow jacket coil packs in it, so it can't be the coil packs. just hard to figure out why the TCS & SLIP light turns on when it starts to play up.

Would a faulty AFM do that?

Pat just stated he had 2 out of 6 brand new yellow jacket coilpacks fail on him, maybe he got some ultra dodgey ones - or maybe they are all dodgey? nfi

Ever changed your standard panel filter assembly over to a pod yourself and left the afm plug off? does it feel like that?

swap the afm for a used second hand one and see it it is any better. should be one on here for $50-100 max.

i brought the car with a apexi pod filter already installed.

brought it late last year, just recently playing up.

im borrowing my mates afm this friday, so hopefully its just my afm thats faulty. not something major.

i'll tell you all how it went. im borrowing it for at least 2 days.

hi Mark, just wondering if you found a resolution for this issue? sounds similar to a drama i'm having...
