posted by  someone claiming to be Mickey on  Tue Jan 25 09:58 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I do not use my parking brake in the colder weather so that wasn't it! Now this morning it was 10F.....I did start the car and warmed it up 5 minutes before driving off....no issues!!! It was almost like my car was a "drive by wire" car and there was something wrong with the throttle board!! Of course 98's are good ole drive by cable still! This really felt like "limp mode" deal! Would 98's do that? If so...why no check engine light? Now I find myself doubting the cars reliablility!! I only have 117K..........was hoping for 100K MORE!!! Is it time for a Honda?????
