Hello All,

Here is the funniest thing, I am driving on the thruway, at around 60mph in a bring night enjoying the ride in my T5 and commenting to myself how wonderful life is, when all of a sudden a message pops up in the Message Center: "Performance Reduced" accompanied by an Orange warning sign \!/ in the middle of the dash. From this point on, the RPM slowly decreased and the car speed dropped to about 40mph. While the message stayed on, I managed to accelerate back to 65mph and made it home. During that time I can tell the acceleration and deceleration are "bumpy" and irregular. Once parked and the engine turned off and then back on the message is gone. Can't wait to try again tomorrow.

Any thoughts on what just happened anyone?
Francois.
