How To Fix Limp Mode Causes (Reduced Engine Power) 

Limp mode is the worst thing that can happen to a man

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.

Very interesting and helpful information. Forgot to mention misfire.

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.

Very helpful ! Thanks.

This video is awesome! Thumbs up! Thanks!

Thanks for very valuable information 👌

Excellent. Thank you. 👍

Always to the points

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

Very useful

i had this the other day, turns out i just needed a 12 episode anime character arc

2005 Town and county van. Was low on transmission fluid. But the code p0300 said misfire. So I changed the plugs, wires, and ignition coil. Drives ok for 10 minutes still goes into limp mode.

Thank you

NEED MORE CONTENT 💯😤

Good video

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

im here because of gigguk... cool video :)

In my SLK 320 R 170 465..2001..has this issue but only if l try to spin the rear wheels! I thn hve to reset the transmission and can drive without issues ie by taking the accelerator pedal slowly.. What could be the problem?

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.

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 have problem in the kia amanti 2004 Code p1155 I changed the throttle body also i changed APS but rhe code not received

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.

What about a loose motor mount? Would that trigger limp mode?

Does limp mode have anything to do with breaks? Not working right?

Okay... I have an 06 H3 Hummer that goes into Limp mode... buutt only when its Hot out.. like 70_++... and if I have driven it 15++ miles... it dont do it it in the winter at all or if I drive it short distances ... at a short period of time...., I have codes P2176..History+=P1516 , 2101 ,2176...and cleared 1516... any suggestions ?

came here from a ED joke but got actual advice

I have a CRV 2012, but it do not go beyond 5,000 Revs, there is no engine light nothing in the scan, what could I do

My car goes into limp mode but if I cut it off and back on goes away?? Every time Might not mess up for weeks then will do its thing. Off back on good to go any recommendations??

Mines going to limp mode i hooked up computer to it and o2 sensors pop up about to change that and hope for the best

when im driving my car reduces speed and i push the gas nothing happens then it'll regain speed for a minute or 2 then start to reduce again if i stop the car dies . the dealer has changed alot of things and still not fixed idk what else i can do

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?

Ohh i get it now. I personally am in limp mode now my car to

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

Okay, now I have 90% confirmed that my car is in Limp mode. I toped up the transmission fluid after the workshop didn't top it after a radiator change and lost some ATF oil. Second have a crank and cam sensor bank1 and 2 code. Then knock sensor code. Now abs. Now my car shifts from 1st to 3rd gear directly when hot but not at cold starts.

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??????

How do you get your car out of limp mode once the part is replaced

2010 f150 went into limp mode any tips wrench light is on feels like it’s stuck on 3rd I turn car off open door and it’s good to go? Someone don’t just read this, RESPOND PLS

I like technology until it gets bossy or manipulative.

my car does this but the no mechanic can figure out how to fix it

I have a 99 chevy silverado 1500 5.3 that ive done some upgrades to and, it's been stuck in gears 2_3 unless I clear the codes then it will go from 1 2 3 but won't down shift, I also had a p0300 code and found a vacuum leak, as soon as I fixed the leak, my maf went out, my truck starts and instantly dies, is it possible that the leak kept my truck running and once I fixt the leak my engine no longer was getting proper air?

man can you help the diffrent limp mode?

Will a damaged catalytic converter and bad O2 sensor cause this a vehicle to go into limp mode?
