    Best explanation of limp mode I've seen on youtube. I think my problem is timing chain, rattle on cold start up. Also noticed metal shavings in my last oil cange.

    Good to the point info. My car went into limp mode, dishonest repair shop owner suggested expensive fix to fund his next vacation, I don't trust mechanics or shop owners. I paint them all with the dishonest brush.

      You fix that shit yourself, Fitzpatrick? Ernie was really looking forward to that vacation in Delaware I'll have you know! There's 2 Nights at the Marathon Inn he'll never stop thinking about because you wouldn't spend $167.34!

    Thanks for the info. It describes my problem. But now i need help fixing it. I’ve been working through all the trouble codes.
    On my list: pcm/tcm, cat converters, o2 sensors, evap canister, evap solenoid, evap purge valve, throttle position sensor, accelerator position sensor, clear all codes, transmission fluid, oil check…
    I’m left with a few options: check wiring, check timing, vacuum out the evap lines

      Have your battery and alternator checked, with that many codes sounds, like low voltage, or bad ecu.

    I have a 2012 ford Taurus replaced the throttle body and my vehicle sometimes stalls,backfires,and eventually goes into limp mode while driving no matter the speed at random,even when idling at times. What could be the problem? I’m getting throttle body codes p2104,p2107,p2110, and p2111

  • @charleswesley9907

    Limp mode can be from a small disc which contacts the brake switch falling out . I found a dime size rubber disc on my car matt . The brake lights were on and would not go off . I glued the rubber brake light disc back in place . The break lights off and truck runs like it used to. Anything puts the truck in limp mode /

    I had a car that developed an error with the abs system where the brakes would suddenly lock up at random times and I'd screech to a stop. This likely happened because of a faulty anti-roll sensor which I replaced but it needed to be professionally calibrated. So I replaced the ECU and the transmission began causing errors since the ECU didn't recognize it, which ultimately sent the car into limp mode.

    My van went into limp mode today. Yesterday the battery drained totally, I called the RAC today who came out and got me going. Annoyingly the engine light decided to come on saying glow plug circuit issue, and DPF soot and ash accumulation, hence the limp mode. I have been told on a facebook group that it's likely gone into limp mode due to the battery draining and messing up something in the engine management, it seems a strange coincidence why all of a sudden my van suddenly has a glow plug a DPF issue when 24 hours earlier it pulled like a train.

    My truck goes into limp mode "randomly" but throws 0 codes
    I think its a sensor "hopefully" Its a 1999 Chevy Silverado 2500. I dont want a mechanic to tell me I need a new transmission. When its not in limp mode it drives and shifts fine.

    I just got my limp mode today I accidentally over rev the car I thought I was in gear but it was in neutral. Check the codes cylinder one through four and random misfire came up before I reset the code I turn the car on and off went for a drive no issues the car drove normal after that I cleared the codes and no issues after that

  • @lowlow2603
    @lowlow2603 Před rokem +1

    So my 2015 nissan stopped accelerating, no check engine light, still powers on. We scanned it and all issues pointb to an abs sensor issue. But it could also be the transmission. I don't want to waste money fixing abs sensor for it to be the transmission, so what are the chances the abs sensor can throw it into safety mode?

    Very interesting but what happens when the car shifts well from 0 to 100mph, but it struggles to go past 100mph Tachometer maximum speed is 180 mph No check engine light and no any codes, I have changed the following already.
    1.clean catalyc converter
    2. Put new fuel pump
    3.put new fuel filter
    4.new spark plugs
    5.new ignition coils
    6.new air filter
    7. new fuel Nozzels
    8.Clean transmission pan (no any metal shavings found )
    9.Clean valve body and their transmission shift solenoids
    10. New Mass Air flow sensor
    11. Clean camshaft and cranshaft sensors
    12. Change transmission fluid
    13. Oxygen sensor tested and are OK
    What else can be done to this vehicle??????
