    A code should store in memory anytime the CEL comes on. Very odd. Reading codes is not rocket science, so I wouldn't even chalk it up to AutoZone servic etech incompentence. Hmm... very strange.

    I don't know what puts a VX in limp-home mode (but I'll give you a dissertation on what can cause it in an '89 Porsche!). Anyone know?

    I had misfires due to water in the the spark plug well after power-washing the engine, which acts like a limp-home mode. Did you do anything like that recently?

    There's always the impossible-to-disprove electrical gremlins theory...

    Good luck!

    mm sounds similar to a problem i had..

    i was driving down the freeway and hit the gas to accelerate with traffic and i couldnt rev past like 2300rpm.. so i pulled it over and looked down and CEL was on.. turned it off.. checked under the hood for obvious bad signs.. saw nothing.. got back in and started it back up.. ran like a champ... after that i replaced my fuel filter and fuel pressure regulator and i havent had an issue since
