Hi, if anyone can help me, i would really appreciate it, im not a mechanic so i know this may sound dumb but anyway. The other day when i initially took off the car felt fine, then when i tried to go over 50km it felt like i was forcing the car, i finally past 50km, then all of a sudden the check light came on. After a few hours i drove it again and the light was off everything was normal, but it happended again a few days later, and is it a coincidence that it was raining and humid when the light came on both times??? By the way my light isn't on right now. wiered no?? any way i would love any feed back. thanks!!!

I am assuming that the light that came on was the check engine light. The motor icon light. Well, that being probably the case, I would have a OBD2 scanner read the computer. The code should be in there. This sounds electrical in nature. Find the code that comes with the problem and give us the information.

Either take it to a mechanic that can pull the codes or buy an OBD2 scanner. They aren't all that much on ebay for instance.
