Hi Everyone,
Just looking for some information. Anyone with the 3.6R having any stalling/ECU issues? Mine (2011 w/ 238k km) has stalled on me twice over a two week period. It has been abnormally hot here in Toronto this July. The car does have a tune(ECUtek), but that was done years ago.
The first stall happen was city driving in the evening. The steering wheel felt heavy and when I looked down had some lights on. Rolled into a side street and then put the car in park. I was able to restart the car without issue, but all the lights cleared also. When I got home, I tried to download codes, but my OBDII(Kiwi 3) didn't find any.
The 2nd time occurred when I was on the highway going 110km/h, had to throw the car in neutral(put by 4-ways on) and tried to restart the car. It restarted again, but when I attempted to put it drive and gently apply throttle, it cut out again. So I threw it back into neutral again and restarted. This time when I applied some throttle, the car did respond. I was able to get home without any issues after that.
I'm going to drop the car off at the mechanics this week. Speaking with some friends they say it might be a harness issue or ECU or both. Just looking for some thoughts or opinions from other owners.
Thanks, JT
