| Description of the problem | Traveling to work on ih35n in san antonio when all of a sudden i lose all power and the car seems to stall, i turn on my hazards and make my way to the shoulder while praying the other traffic moving at speed doesn't plow into me. Once on the side of the road the car is shuddering and surging forward, restarted the car and everything seemed fine, not even a "check engine" light. Same day on the way home from work (ih35s near hwy 281 interchange) and the engine stalls again, at speed on the interstate but even worse now because of the increased traffic that needs to be dodged while i get the car onto a raised shoulder. Restart the car and this time a "cel" i drive to autozone for a code check and it's p2111 stuck throttle body. Sunday night car starts stalling every 50-100 feet on a frontage road of ih10 near callaghan while cresting a hill and no clear sight lines, luckily i was not rear ended. Managed to nurse it, surging forward suddenly and sputtering to a creep, into a la quinta hotel parking lot and await a tow. |
