However, today while driving home in bumper to bumper traffic for an hour the "park brake/dsc etc..." came on. the amber and red light in the speedometer as well. As i released the brake to make a left turn, it went into limp mode. I pulled over and restarted the car. Same thing happened again, tried to make a turn, released brake pedal etc.. Restarted the car again, but this time engine light came on and made it the remaining 2kms home. let it sit while i had dinner. when i restarted the car again still had the check engine light on, but car runs fine. Took it for a few kms around the side streets where i lived so as not to get stuck if it started to limp again.

So my question is, would someone be kind enough to post photos of the throttle body, TPS and Mass air flow sensor for me so I can take a look before i get it checked out.

Thanks ever so much in advance!
My brand new F-type has done all of that except the limp home mode, from day one. Park brake, DSC, etc. It got worse over time. Turned out it was a battery issue. New battery plus a battery tender and the codes have not returned. Best of luck, Brad

Just read the codes. It gets expensive and very time consuming to guess.
