Hey folks,
Last night, my car was perfectly fine. This morning while leaving the house I noticed the car felt a bit sluggish, and as the journey went on, some things became apparent:
1) The car won't rev above 3000
2) When going uphill, I can sometimes change down to help me, but otherwise even when switching to manual it ignores my attempts to change gear
3) There's no warning lights coming on, at all.
It's a W221 320CDi. I've not had a chance to get the OBD out, as I'm in work right now, but I was planning on taking it to the garage at lunchtime.
Any ideas? It feels like it's in limp mode, which is a pain in the rectum considering I live on the Isle of Man and everywhere is a damn hill...
