Engine Light - Revs Dropping
Hi All,

i have a 98 Gen2 LWB Auto and sat in traffic (William Nicol at 5 so really slow) and after almost an hour i noticed the revs drop below 1000 and then the engine light came on.

i stopped and switched off while i checked all fluids and then disconnected the battery for 10 minutes or so. after re-connecting and driving the slowly on the highway the car felt a bit sluggish and wasnt changing up or down as it used.

any ideas of the possible cause?

kind regards
Re: Engine Light - Revs Dropping
Not sure on the gen2, but on the gen3 if you disconnect the battery it resets the gearbox 'learn' settings and will change differently than before for a few 100kms before it has relearned itself. That might explain the different gearbox changes.

Why it dropped revs and then throw CE light in the first place I dont know. Have you tried getting the fault codes before you disconnected the batteries?
