My check engine light started flashing under hard acceleration this morning. I was experiencing a bit of wheel hop at the top end of first and into second gear. Is this normal I've never noticed it before? Any known reason why this would occur?

 

Normal. Wheel hop & lack of traction causes what the ECU thinks is misfires & flashes the CEL. Nothing to worry about.

 

Alright thanks!

 

with fuzzy.

 

x2. fuzzy isnt fuzzy with this subject

 

same thing is happening to me mostly when is wet. a good rubber is the best solution

 

If you aren't using a good rubber and it's wet, a missfire isn't such a bad thing.

 

never have this happen to me when I spin the wheels ... that i've seen.

ever


that's odd

 

Thats what she said!!!!

Auto's don't do it a whole lot. Easier in the 6MT.

 

I have done it once in 142k miles, happened when it was wet...
