Car loses power suddenly when driving and there is little or no throttle response. RPM drop when clutch is pushed in prior to stopping.

Check engine light comes on and car will sputter if I use the throttle.I pull over, turn engine off and restart. It runs fine and the check engine light goes off after a day. Brought car to dealer to see if the extended service plan will cover the repair. THEY DON'T have a QUALIFIED mechanic on staff! Thanks a bunch Nissan!We are currently looking for a mechanic to do a error code search. Thanks for the reply! Mike
