I have a 2003 V6 Honda Accord. My engine light was on when I was driving this morning. On my way to work, the engine light went off, however I cannot feel the car switching gears anymore. The RPM monitor hits 3 when I go 60 mph. It is usually at 2 at that speed. I got my air filter changed 3 days ago. What can be the problem?

An error was detected in the engine control/management system triggering the CEL.

Get a free scan done at Autozone and let me know the EXACT trouble codes.
