Q: Limp mode

Hello, thank you for writing in. The Limp Mode is activated as a safety precaution due to the computer detecting an issue that will potentially cause further damage. There are a wide variety of sensors that are inputs for the safety mode. Therefore there are a wide variety of systems we would need to look into in order to figure out which one is causing these issues. The easiest way to do this, is to let the computer tell you itself. This can be done when those check engine and warning lights come on. Regardless if anything is actually wrong, a sensor is freaking out the computer for one reason or another. When those warning lights illuminate, take the car to have it scanned for diagnostic troubleshooting codes. These will tell you exactly what the computer is detecting, and give you insight on what you will need to do to resolve the issue.
