car loses power, engine running, oil, battery, and engine lights on. Accelerator does nothing. pull over and turn key off. then start it and it's fine - until next time.
Advance Auto says there are no codes showing or pending
Any ideas??

Yeah same thing with my car, any feedback?

try replacing the crankshaft position sensor

ALso could be the Throttle body being dirty.
I had a Bad PCV valve that drew oil and got cruddy on my truck !,

All lights came on and went into Limp mod ,Does that to protect the car of something !
What codes do you have ?
Can you borrow a scan tool ? Or pick one up always good to have !
Kind of hard to know whats up from a forum

no codes!

Check Battery connections and Battery ! All the electronics go funky with a weak battery
SOme codes are burried and a scanner that searches deeper may be a help

What year is your car ?
Another guess maybe plugs or a bad coil pack !
And YES I am guessing as I am no mechanic lol Just issues I have heard before
Just to hard to diagnose from a forum.. If you have little to no experience with troubleshooting like me
I would go to a mechanic you can trust, Thats what I did
PLEASE update what you do find out
Thanks

It's a 2015. I took it to a mechanic who said he owned one with the same problem. Fixed his be replacing something unrelated - I think it was the brake switch. Couldn't fix mine
