Keeps going to Limp Home Mode
Hello
My 2.1 2004 xtype has had a few issues with Limp Home Mode, if it has been idoling at the lights it will not go past 3000 rpm or if Im driving at 60km for a while same thing. This dose not happen every time but dose happen constantly. I have replayced the air flow meeter, put through fuel cleaner and changed the Fuel and air filters. Can any one offer some advise.
Thanks
Jeffre

So no check engine light, or just no codes? Mine went into limp mode every time it rained, turned out to be a moisture leak and the TCM got wet. It would dry out and be fine until it rained again.

Neither no light & no codes and it dose it whether it is dry or wet. Just to clarify I would need to connect the car to a diagnostics machine to get the codes? I had a mechanic who was putting new tyres on plug his diagnostics in and the only thing I got was it is idling lean. Since then I have replaced the Air Flow meeter.

The car does not enter limp mode without registering a code in the ECU.
I dont understand why you are saying there is no code. There must be. Has the dealer hooked up their computer and told you there is no code? They are the only ones that can get the real reason for entering limp mode. I dont like that they have us by the short and curly's but that is how it is. Limp mode is not coverd by OBDII and there are no codes that can be read by a home or independent repair shop code reader.
