Ok who has a car that has gone into limp home mode or will not run or loss of drive at all.
Try not to include fults that made a lamp come on but the car still to your knowledge ran ok.
Just the basic needed modle,engine and transmission type.

My car is in limp mode I think. Started it this morning, it has reduced power and engine light is on.


I've left it at home, got a lift to work and have RAC coming at 4pm to look at it

Will let you know what happens this evening.

Well I got a lift home, turned the engine over (out of curiosity) and it was fine

However the dealer service dept want it in for checking so rac agent has uplifted it.

Crank position sensor has been ordered apparently

crank position sensor it basic terms reads the engine as it rotates and sends data to computer(ecu) to adjust all settings if you remove it the car wont run. its more complicated but thats a simple breakdown for non techkies

 

[Marie]

Well lets hope it solves the problem.

I suppose it could be worse.
I could have a broken white juke

Crank position sensors can go out of line after a bad stall, it used to happen quite a lot on my previous cars. usually just needs reseting. Tom

 

[Marie]

I didnt have a bad stall, or even a good stall.
And they've ordered a new part so its not just a reset it seems.
