Rep Power: 0 Help, car is in safe mode!
I can't shift past 4k rpms, the ecu seems to have reset the redline to that. Although I've noticed yesterday that after 5k rpms it no longer pulled at all. Car's been acting funny in the lower gears for the past couple weeks, lots of jerking in between gear shifts. I thought it was just clutch/pressure plate.
I am not boosted, and that seems to be the only time this happens or something. Anyone have any ideas?

Rep Power: 0 Nothing at all, actually. I took all my mods off about three months ago as I was gonna trade the car in for a truck. I don't drive the car hard or anything because I have my child in the car all the time. It's a 2003 though with 105k miles on it, so I guess maybe it's just it's time?
