2023 kia forte GT limp mode in the rain
I’ve been fighting this issue for a while and I can’t seem to get to the bottom of it so maybe someone here can. For starters I have a 2023 Kia forte GT
Mods are…
Hot pipe
Cold pipe
HKS blow off valve
HKS spark plugs
SXTH Coil packs
Ran a JB4 in the past was taken off before the issue began
SXTH intercooler
Catch can
And cold (warm) air intake
Ran on 93+
So when it rains usually my car lags between shifts and refuses to build boost until about third gear and even then it’s extremely slow.I’ve had times where the car just wouldn’t move at all but I haven’t had that issue in a long time. Occasionally reverse will not work especially when it rains but it’s sometimes solved by turning it off and turning it back on again. There are good days where the car feels amazing and then I will turn it on again and there is a check engine light; no reverse and lagging between shifts again. Sometimes the car is driven hard and will be fine and others it will go into limp mode pretty soon after or just go into limp mode while driving around the city. The common culprit is rain as it does occur every single time it rains but it also does happen occasionally when it’s not. Any ideas ?
