Accord Glow plug warning light by mechainical

Hey all,
 
This is my first post here, so please bare with me.
 
The ploblem is with my 2005 2.2 i-cdti accord. Every now and then, when I get to about 3,000rpm, the engine looses power. It does not stop the engine, but the glow plug light comes on and starts flashing. When this happens the engine is limited to about 2100rpm, in all gears, and does not want to go any higher.
 
The only way I can get it to run normally again, is to pull over, turn off the engine for a few minutes and restart. Once I do this, it runs ok, as long as I keep the RPM low.
 
The thing is, it does not happen every day, so I am stumped for a cause.
 
Has anyone had this problem, or related problem, and if so, what was the fix?
 
Thanks.

Have you disconnected the battery recently?

Nope, never done that. It had been in my drive for about two weeks though without being started. But I really don't think that that would cause this. I work a month at a time out of the country, and have never had anything like this happen before, in almost two years!

Gees, I don't remember any other posts for an Accord diesel. Maybe it deserves it's own thread based on Accord diesel issues?

Did you grab your filters from handa-accessories.com by any chance?
 
I did this time. HandA is a great place. The last time, I had a 15% off parts coupon from a Honda dealer so I bought stuff there. That was the one and only time I've seen that sort of coupon.

Looking for someone who had a similar problem with change getting wedged in the back of the coin pocket at the top of the gear shift and wedging open the lid?

I had a dime fall into a space at backside of the pocket in my 2006 Accord and it prevented the cover arm from pivoting. I tried to remove the rubber liner first and that didn't give me access....don't try it because it doesn't fit correctly now. After a couple of months I pried the dime out with two pieces of wire. Lid shuts fine now. I remember working at it a long time but with patience it's possible.

Hello everyone. Well here is the story, I was on vacation for 3 weeks, and while I was on vacation I told my brother in law to turn my car every 2-3 days. I live in Canada and its very cold right now. When I came back I noticed that I had 3 lights on. ABS, Traction control, and the TCS light on.....well it ended up being my ABS control unit. The dealership wanted $1700 for the assemly kit but luckily I found a used one for $250. Has anyone else had their ABS control unit screw up?
 
Second question is, today I noticed that my heated seats are not working and my power seat is not working.....is it just a coincidence that everything is screwing up all at once? What could cause this to happen? I installed HID lights, and some people told me that it could be that, but most tell me it has nothing to do with it. I remember I replaced my battery right after I installed the lights, and my mechanic told me that if I wasnt boosting the car properly it could of screwed the electrical wiring....someone hellllllpp
