Okay so i have been going for about 6 - 7 months straight without getting limp mode. Recently I was noticing something that seemed like limp mode was coming back.. Starting out in 1st it would feel like i am towing a trailer behind me hit 2nd and it would start with the same thing then snap out of it. After snapping out of it would be normal as if limp mode never happened. If i restart the car before it goes back to normal will not fix it like i used to be able to while in limp mode. So first thing i tried was cleaning the air filter which i negleted alot. so cleaned nothing changed. I have no idea what i else i can do. I have thought about changing the fuel filter where as the original owner did that once since it was bought in 2001. other then that the only other things i can think of is a bad turbo get a new one or a used one or dirty intake and egr which needs to cleaned go to junk yard and get spares clean them and replace. So seeing how other people on here are smarter then me in this stuff i need ideas. I am a volunteer firefighter and need to be able to get to a scene fast not take 10 minutes to get up a hill.
