Hi everyone,

I have a Z and posted on my350z but haven't gotten any answers. I thought i'd try at our sister forum

I was on the freeway on the way home from work when I experienced some issues. I was going 65mph and the Z (2004 auto 82k) started to jerk. I stepped on the gas pedal more and no response, the Z was losing speed. I pulled over to the shoulder and the car engine shut off. I started the ignition and it started to drive normally and it didn't happen again. The check engine light never came on and the power was still on because the steering wheel did not lock up.

Does anyone know what the cause could be?

The Z has never experienced any issues until today. I was low on gas but I filled up 5 minutes before I started to experience problems. I drove 30 miles after that with no problems.

UPDATE: My Z just did the same thing earlier. I was just driving on the streets then the tach slowly jerkily dropped in RPMs and the wheel locked up. The Z started right up 10 seconds after. Once again no codes thrown.

Any ideas?

 

water in your fuel?

 

I believe there is a bulletin for this. Even though you may not have a stored code, chances are you have a bad cam/crank sensor. Typical approach here is to replace all 3.
