dont suppose you know where this is most likely to happen? or how to find it :-( thanks

hello again long time no see - been getting some work done. Still getting restricted mode. i have gotten someone out with a better OBD thing and cleared all the errors - there were others my OBD didnt detect such as: PCM (Power Control Module) P0691-11 fan 1 control circuit low - circuit short...

Not sure if it was faulty or not - since nothing has changed theres no real evidence either way

so quick update i bought a new MAP sensor and plugged it in and nothing has changed i still get the same behaviour. i have cleared the logs and am getting no new errors Thanks

HI i had 2x keys for the car. recently we had an argument that we shouldnt be leaving the key in the car which came to a head when we found out the key was in the house while we were at the supermarket. But the car started so it transpires that we have lost the spare key - in the car. this was...

to try and better describe it - imagine you are at a roundabout and you see a car approaching from the other side. you know you have time to accelarate and get "smartly" to 25-30 mph - not Formula 1 style - just normal style. Its default known behaviour of the car. Now imagine at the same...

Thanks - im not driving it like a sports car nor do i want to - its just a way of describing a noticable before/after performance of the car in general. The DPF is new and was replaced by JLR in August and they now claim its not the cause of the problem and want to charge us 170 quid to...

yeah good shout its a typo was 0108. took the MAP out again and its clean as a whistle at the moment

No - once the errors are reset they go away and stay away but the engine is still sluggish. I dont "need" to rev it over 3k. It revs to 5k before the "limiter" comes on then it revs to 3k. it gets to 83 MPH but very slowly especially the first 30-40 mph. uphill is chronic, downhill isnt too bad...

so i took it out for a sping there and it goes slow and sluggish but gets to 83 MPH and sounds fine. i got a new error code though today - "P24C2 - Manufacturer Control"

exactly - i cant. i need that miracle. Would also settle for a method of resetting the main computer somehow :-)

no in the post above it says to only replace this part when confirmed as failed - miracle seems to be my best bet at the moment

no nothing it all seems normal except i get the error and go real slow :-(

so currently i can still drive the car. when i start it, i have about 20 seconds where i can revv it fully - but then i get the restricted performance error and it caps off the revvs at 3100. i can drive it and its slow but eventually gets to 3100 revs which equates to about 65 mph but i can...

so the latest is this. i cleared all the errors and the car starts etc and as before i get restricted performance. No errors. i then disconnected the MAP sensor and immediately get an error P0108 " Manifold Absolute Pressure / Barometric Pressure Circuit High" The car still started and is still...

hi no problem i dont think i will be diagnosing or testing anything with the Multimeter. Way outside my comfort zone

i think it makes sense that the MAF/IAT has failed as it does the same thing and perfromsm the same whether its plugged in or not. Also i like your idea about still replacing the MAP first in case its damaged. Which makes me also think - can i troubleshoot the MAP or diagnose it with my meter. i...

Hi sorry no if i unplug the MAF it just does the same thing - on startup i get about 5 seconds where i can rev the car fully up past 50000 RPM and then i get a Restricted Performance error and then it wont rev above 3100 RPM and gets there slower too. No change in with the MAF connected or not...

aww crap its like 260 quid for a new one - and EuroCar parts actually have it in stock. would be just my luck if i got a new one and it wasnt the problem :-( or the problem didnt resolve it self or the computer wouldnt clear or something. Whatever could go wrong - for me - ill defo go wrong ....

Strangely my code reader never clears errors - it says the car must be siwtched off with the ignition on and then when i hit CLear it doesn't clear them. Well.... it says it doesnt anyway but it seems to have cleared the first error and wont clear these - like you say maybe these are current and...
