In the last 30 days, on three moderately long road trips (180-220 miles), after approx 1-2 hrs driving, and while operating at hwy speeds (60-70), the check engine light illuminated, and the car chugged/struggled with any torque from the engine (accelerating on flat ground/moderate hill in cruise control.) Initially, the light would go out when coasting (downhill or foot off throttle). Eventually, maybe after 5-10 mins of this condition, the light stayed on continuously, until stopping/shutdown. Continued trip by using manual-mode shifted to 5th only at HWY speed, and continued journey. After cooling down, the light goes out, no problems noted - no codes revealed/stored. Took to service station next day - no faults found.
