    Default Limp Mode? – 22-06-2010,02:17 PM
    Hi All,

    I was stuck in a traffic jam on Sunday for 45mins and when we started to move again there was no power when I put my foot down (only went to 65mph) is this limp mode? I pulled over and restarted the car and everything was fine!

    Any Ideas what has caused this and is it a sign of something going to go wrong?

    Car: A4 2.0SE 140

    Cheers
    Michael

    That is limp mode and the only way you will find out why is to have a fault code scan done. What is the engine type code?
