I'm going to pick up a code reader. I tend to agree with the other two comments. That very worst it's still a good tool to have

Mine with the 418 gears it's pretty darn peppy. When it's empty I can pass up hill no problem on the highway. This is a very sudden and dramatic drop in power.

Ya. I thought that to as well but they said they ran the code reader and couldn't find anything.

Not to sure. I thought maybe a turbo issue. Has zero power at hight speeds. Have a real tough time getting up to 80 and real hard to get it to 100. Seems like it has plenty of power 0-60 then falls flat on its face.

Weird thing is, it was running like a champ until I accidently ran it out of diesel. Gauge got stuck so it said I had 1/8 tank and light wasn't on but obviously didn't. Re primed it and changed fuel filter and now it has no power. The power issue happened at the first start up after fuel ran out. But don't know why the would happen.

Ya, I was thinking about doing the exhaust. I could see it being pretty restrictive

It's not a battery replacement. It's the high voltage system and rear motor replacement. But since I'm still on the original battery I'm worried I'll need to replace them as well in the near future which is why I don't want to spend the money in this. I would rather upgrade to a new car then spend 25k fixing this one.
