MS Low RPM issue

Hi there, looking for some input on a problem am having with my car. Hopped in it yesterday morning and noticed once i started driving that the RPM would not rev past 3000 even with the gas pinned to the floor. So parked it and looking for some advice from anyone that may have had similar issues? Any help is appreciated (2004 RX8 with automatic trans and 44,000 miles.)

yeah whats the cel read because your engine is in limp mode. Or your cat is clogged. Or you have failing coils.

we need to know what the check engine light code is?

It's broken.



We need a lot more info. Like year, MT/AT, aftermarket add-ons. mileage. Tell us about the car and what you were doing up until this point.
