SES and bogging HELP Here it is. All of the sudden my car starts bogging down at idel. After I start going, it still bogs but goes with much resistance. Then, all of the sudden it kicks in and starts going like normal. I am like, ok a freak accurance. Then I stop and go, all is good. Then then next time I stop it does it again. Bogs wayyy down then picks up like normal after I get on the gas. Then I am driving in some stop and go traffic and the SES light comes on and POS starts running like ****. Then a few minutes later the SES light starts blinking. Then it comes on solid. It does this the whole way home while running like garbage. Solid, blinks, solid, blinks...... WHAT THE ...... is going on here. Anyone??? Plugs, wires, fuel injectors clogged....... I AM FURIOUS. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP. Oh, I have a 99 TA M6 with ~31K miles. Mods are a Lid and cat-back. I do not have an autotap so I cant do that.

Re: SES and bogging HELP Blinking is multiple misfires. Check spark plugs. Also since you have a 99 it could be a vacumm leak. Check around the intake manifold where the EGR goes in. First try replacing spark plugs and wires if you cant find a leak. Or even just make sure all the wires are hooked up all the way. Had both of these happen to me.

Re: SES and bogging HELP Did you just let off from beating it and then it started to happen. Thats the way it happens when the EGR leaks. If it was just driving normally then i would check ignition.

Re: SES and bogging HELP I was not driving hard when this started happening. However, it has done it in the past right after getting all up on it. How can I check and fix the EGR if its leaking. Also, I reset the PCM and everything seems to be fine. No SES and no bogging????
