MY CHECK ENGINE LITE CAME ON AT THE SAME TIME A MESSAGE SAID "RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE" - I NOTICED A PERIODIC LOSS OF POWER AND THE ENGINE SLIGHTLY ROUGH.
WHAT DOES THIS MESSAGE/CODE MEAN?
tHANKYOU

ALSO ANOTHER ISSUE. THE cd CHANGER IN THE TRUNK DOESNT WORK - THERE SEEMS TO BE NO POWER TO IT, AND NO ONE WANTES TO TOUCH IT- DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Hi there,

Get the code read and identified and have that taken care off, the code will give the tech a starting place to identify your performance issue. As for the changer, I would just unplug the unit and check for power & earth if ok the problem will probably be in the unit itself.
