Hi, another problem now
Just filled up, definately unleaded, now the engine struggles to rev to 3k and when it does hit 3k jumps about as if there's some sort of limit there?
Can anyone shed light on the matter?
Mike

PM Lee (thats his username). Him travelling to you from Sheffield will be cheaper than going to a garage and getting it sorted.

Leave the battery off for 45-60 mins mins, let the ECU restore to default

Then it needs code reading if it doesn't work.
Limp mode means there is a main sensor detecting a fault
And French cars always have at least two problems

No luck!
Reconnected battery, drives fine, just bogs down at 3500 now, looks like its going for some fault reading which can hopefully fix it
No EML light still
Good job i took out warranty when i bought it haha
