Drives ok flat but looses power on hills
Have your exhaust checked for back pressure from bad cats to a muffler clogging up.
No year,stated, and no country stated.
google earth cant find hill 13. so......
is transmission slipping? is it and automatic trans.? not stick shift.
slip means , engine RPM rises fast, but car speed does not.
some think that is power loss and is not. it's just slipping.
slip is transmission problems.
ok its not slip.:

1.0 L G10T (LS3) turbo I3
1.3 L G13A/BA (L72) 8V I4
1.3 L G13B/G13K 16V DOHC I4

1527 cc TUD5 diesel I4
1.3 L M13A I4 (petrol)
1.5 L M15A I4 (petrol)
1.3 L I4 (diesel)
so saying my engine acts odd , is useless with out knowing what engine is there.....see why?
ill then answer for generic engines. GAS or Petrol.
there are steps or tests in each case.
why not get the car serviced. they will do those tests.
here ill do useless wild guessing too.
bad fuel.
never tuned up in last decade.
bad map or maf, sensors.
misfiring for 50 reasons.
sure cat melted. and most do that as a VICTIM. not primary cause , primary is misfire gross and rich AFR.
even transmission slip, not even an engine issue.
or find a mech, ask him to look ,he opens hood and see what engine is there, OMG its diesel......
then drives it, slips or not. misfires?
CEL glows.? at misfire, gee scan it. now!
he check engine in many ways.
on old cars compression, ok.?
spark perfect.(gas engine)
spark timing off, oops cam drive slipped.
got P030x misfire, DTC errors? or?
fuel pressure low.
injector leak down test pass.
injector balance test pass.
let him do the work. or lean how.
on all cars, same answer
let them or DIY,.
pick one?
or just pay for diagnosis, there a 3rd choice.
not posting year, car, or country is FAIL moment. big time!
but you are just like the other million posting same way.
learn now that cars vary by country.
and win.
