Hi Q45's O's.
Just bought my first Q45, an 03. (I love the Inf brand, but had and I30 before)
I was amazed about what I got, a car in pristine conditions, smell and seems new, that all for a bargain.
But today surprise arised, VDC and SLIP lights turned on and car loosed all its power, if accelerating engine does not respond, had to drive back home at 10 MPH.
Any suggestions? Serious issue?....tnx &GBY.

:welcome: to NICO!

I would guess a failed throttle body motor, but that's just a wild guess. Your car's FSM (factory service manual) is available at www.nicoclub.com/FSM/

There should be a troubleshooting procedure in there...

Good luck!

Well Here's how things are. Car has already presented again similar problem, it complete looses power and even turn off. It seems computer has been mistakenly 'reading' problems that does not exists, for example it has showed a 'deflated tire' while not true. So my guess is that computer is somewhat broken, any suggestions?

You need to have your cars codes pulled. Take your Q to the nearest dealership or mechanic ASAP. You can also consider the likes of Autozone as well. You may want to shell out a $500-$2,000 and get your Q45 serviced/inspected properly to ensure that it's running at optimal level.
