Just curious if this has happened to others.

Going through a turn in 2nd gear the car just turned off. Started back up without any complications or hesitation.


I probably did 4 laps prior, didn't happen again for the rest of the day.

Check the battery post, it's on solid.

 

Fuel?

 

3/4 full

 

It could have been just before going into the turn, did a 3rd to 2nd shift. I realized the steer assistance was off towards the end of teh turn.

 

Ha Ha!!! I know what the problem is.....Your knee has bumped the key in the ignition just right and it killed the motor when down shifting into the corner.
I've done this a number of times myself and it scares the crap out of me every time.

 

Sounds possible, if your seating position puts your knee in that spot.

 

SOB I think your right! Just enough to kill the switch I imagine.

 

Could have been when I was heel-toeing from 3rd to 2nd

 

^woah scary stuff Im gonna try the motions downshifting before I take my S anywhere to see if my knee is that clost too!

 

hahahaha I did the same thing in my RSX... twice.. I thought I killed the engine!
