I noticed a couple days ago that my car was having a problem starting. I have to push the gas to get it to turn over. Also sometimes I get a message that says "Reduced Engine Power", and all cylinders dont engage, which in the manual says it is a problem with the cooling system, I checked all the fluid levels and they are normal. Also when I drive the oil pressure gauge seems to react on how I am accelerating, going from high back to normal after I accelerate. Are these problems related? If not what do I need to do to fix?
