    well my thought is that the tcs is acting as though the wheels are slipping so its reducing power. I am really unsure I will try just about anything right now to fix this thing.

    But why would it only do this when the car warms up? It is strange for sure.

    Also what is that TEMP warning light for on the dash that lights up too? I cannot find it any place

    Well I changed the coolant temp sensor and the t stat... and it fixed my problem.. I must say that is a minor pain in the ass to change that sensor.
