#1: Whats happened, No power. Author: tyrone81, Location: LanarkshirePosted: Fri Dec 24, 2010 2:00 pm ---- I just opened car up in second into third, then all lights went out, The ignition had turned off. I turned it back on and car had no power, foot to the floor. When in first of second it takes a while for the power to build. Its to dark and cold just now to have a look. Any ideas. I need my car for tomorrrow.

Author: Jamie1337, Location: Dorchester, DorsetPosted: Sat Dec 25, 2010 6:51 am ---- It went into limp mode then, should've stored a fault code for you to check on diag at a later date. EML does not always come on due to limp mode. Mine did it once before and was fine the next time I fired her up.
