Default Vtech not engaging in 2nd gear.

I have a CT Supercharged f20.

I've noticed this a few times, and yes the car is plenty warm when I do so.

I'll accelerate through 1st and in to 2nd, but at about 6k I hit a wall as though my engine was cold, but this is after she's been fully warmed up.

However in 3rd, 4th..etc. I don't have any problems.

I was thinking it might be a solenoid issue, but it's plugged in tight and nothing seems off.

Thought maybe it was too much oil as I have to run high with the CT.

I usually run about 5 and 3/4 qt's with the super.

Any ideas?

All I can tell you is that gear shouldn't have anything to do with the engine going to VTEC. I'd guess there's something with your tune and the ECU going on that the engine is cutting power under certain circumstances. You have enough oil in the engine?

You might want to post this isn the FI forum.

Try dialing 611.



Any gauges or logs so we can see what's going on?
