While overtaking there was a sudden sound like air escaping. After that the car seem to have lost power and finally stopped. I read the obd2 scan errors and saw the above. My question is can I fix the causes myself, as a novice and amateur?

I checked and discovered a disconnected hose. Reconnected and car is okay.

Welcome to 2CarPros.

That looks like the air intake tube. That will surely cause an issue. LOL Glad you got it fixed. Let me know if you have questions in the future.

Take care,

Joe
