Right im not 2 sure myself whats wrong with my car and im hopin u guys can tell me wots wrong. i have a corsa b sxi (1.2 16v) the car runs perfectly, but if i take it up to 4000 revs in any gear the car loses power and the engine management light comes on untill i either brake or dip the clutch to drop the revs. i have no idea wots causin it but its really pissing me off and i dont want 2 take it to vauxhall cos they will charge me an arm and a leg.
Any1 got any ideas?
