[2004 Forester -- Engine Cut-out?]

I'm taking my vehicle back in for service tomorrow. Has anyone else had a similar expereince? Or anything to add?

 

---------------------------------------------------------

 

 

I use this mostly to run around town; no problems. But when I take it on the highway I periodically experience a momentary loss of power and accleration. The RPMs drop way down and the check engine light flashes on. Then the car recovers and performs normally. For a little while.

 

It usually happens after the car is warm. It will happen five or six times in the course of a 25-30 mile trip.

 

Has anyone else expereinced this or can anyone make a suggestion of what's happening? My service guys tell me they can't find anything wrong with the car.

 

I'm stumped.
