Engine Performance problem
2003 Other Dodge Models 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 95000 kilometers
----------------------------------------------------------------
I own a 2003 Dodge sx 2.0 and when we start off from a light or intersection a trouble light that looks like an exclamation point comes on for about 5-10 seconds. what does that mean?

Also the RPM gauge shoots up and down when idling, that isn't always happen, but it does happen frequently. It starts at say 1000rpm's then drops down to about 400rpms then shoots back up to 1200rpms then levels out to about 500rpms after doing tha ta couple of times.

Hi:

What model vehicle is it? Does it have traction control? If so, the computer will cut the HP if the tires slip or the computer thinks they slip.

Let me know.
Joe

It isn't the ABS at all. It was the TPS that was giving me all the trouble with the RPM's shotting up and down. I still have the park brake light coming, I still havn't figured that one out.
