well i registered on the AOC but i cant post in the tech section unless i become a registered member!

My run around is having problems :(

basically while i was driving all of a sudden the car wont rev above 3k, if i keep my foot full on throttle it will keep revving from 2.5k to 3k.

I can drive the car in every gear but as soon as i go above 2.5k it starts juddering and if i let go of the gas the engine dies out! Or if i keep hold of the gas a little and slowly it will idle at only 500rpm.

Personally i was thinking it could be a problem with the spark plug or maybe injector but need a second hand opinion on this guys!

Yea, sounds like the MAF sensor also.
Seems like the car is kick into safe mode, maybe the MAF is just dead completely and the ECU isn't getting any reading from it.
