OK new to the site, just got my Xterra last year. I took her offroad two weekends in a row and found some mud and beginner level riverbeds and hills.
The last time I stopped yesterday after a day of hills my Xterra would turn on BUT would not rev if I pushed the gas pedal. VDC light and Check Engine light are on and the car will only idle forward or backward.
I removed the battery negative terminal and left it off for a few minutes and reattached it and the car starts and ran fine but later that day when i stopped it for food it did it again, I did the battery trick again and it worked.
I thought it was ok after that but it did it again today EXCEPT it was having trouble staying in idle and died a few times.
any help will be greatly apreciated...also how do I find xterramoff roaders in my area in southen cali on this site? love to hook up and learn some new things and meet new people.
