Deceleration Mode

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Cadillac DTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When the driver releases the accelerator pedal, air flow into the engine is reduced. The control module monitors the corresponding changes in the TP, the MAF, and the MAP. The control module shuts OFF fuel completely if the deceleration is very rapid, or for long periods, such as long, closed-throttle coast-down. The fuel shuts OFF in order to prevent damage to the catalytic converters.
