ESP EPC then Emissions lights. Car in limp mode

[wobblish]

Ive not driven the car for a few days and 30 mins into driving it yesterday the cars EPC and ESP lights were on. Later the Emissions light came on too.

When i put my foot down nothing happens although the car drives slowly - im guessing thats what limp mode is.

Got the car home and did search here but theres loads of stuff and i got worried.

How do i get the error codes? Im in the UK in the KT9 area (Kingston upon Thames). Im guessing i either buy a thing to get the codes off or find someone local who has one.

Any ideas what this might be? Kinda worried is going to be a nasty expensive surprise.

Thanks for your time guys.

Stop worrying yourself about what it may be and get a code read done at a garage, this should cost about £30 and I am guessing it will show a faulty brake light switch, even though the brake lights work.

Well ive got the fault codes:

Read Fault Code
18047 P1639
Accelerator Position
Sensor 1/2
(G79/G185):
Implausible Signal
P1639 -
Short circuit to

Ive cleared them as the car has now reverted to normal.

Am hoping this is just a glitch in the throttle sensor thingum
