Last night, when I came home, after driving for about 30 minutes, about 2 minutes away from parking, the check light came on. When I pulled up into my driveway (not very steep at all), the car died! It took probably about 3 times for me to get it all the way into the garage, and I noticed that I had to give it considerably more gas just to get the thing in the garage. I had a PO757 a few weeks ago, but after I reset it, it has driven perfectly since them. Should I be concerned? I wouldn't be except it seemed like it was difficult to drive it up into the garage.

Today I drove it around for about 10 miles - got on it a few times and everything - it all felt great. What gives?

I have a 231/234 640/610 cam, vigilante 3200 stall, stg 2 a4, 3.73's and a bunch of bolt ons.

757 is a stall code caused when your pcm thinks due to the stall that a shift did not occur if you have not had the test for this code removed you should and likley yo will be done with this problem

wow thanks so much for the quick reply! my concern was that it seemed to mechanically effect the vehicle, ie - me having to really really push it in order to get it in the garage at only a few degree incline. Is that common and something i should not be concerned about?

Thats normal you were in limp mode and that means allways in third gear so yes would be very slugish

Make sure that you have a tuner do this or if you have tuning software you can do it yourself. As mentioned make sure to clear the code first and then delete the test for it. You will be good to go. Vince

limp mode leaves you with 2nd and 3rd gear only, no first, (which would explain why it seemed to take a lot to get moving) no overdrive, and no lock-up.

tuning SHOULD take care of it if the car is not calibrated for the torque converter.
