lose all acceleration if going up a hill

Post by typan »

Would data logging help out in finding the problem with my 300 SRT 2013, at around 60K and 1500 revs I lose all acceleration if going up a hill .I can press the pedal to the floor and nothing happens until suddenly it kicks in and takes off . Anyone having the same problem or have a fix?

Log may help but you'll need to know what to look for.
No codes or anything?

lose all acceleration up a hill seems to disappear if set in sports mode, next I will switch off the MDS with sports mode on/off.

Hi Mikel, any progress with adding the sports mode switched on all the time, this may help until I find a repair if any for the uphill loss of power?

No, you may want to look into a Tazer to accomplish that.

I run into the exact same problem with my JK 2011 sprintex supercharged. I have a couple emission codes that I can’t shake for some reason also. My Rpm gauge will skyrocket but there’s no power.

Post a data log. It could be picking up some serious false knock and is pulling timing.
