limp

My car has near enough been in limp mode the past two weeks, its so annoying, The car was flying after getting it back from star. To try and correct this I have changed the MAF, N75 valve, and the thrust sensor in my IC pipe. Tonight I set about resetting the fault codes that I've have...

i was drivin my car on friday afternoon, came to a set of traffic lights, lights went green put my foot down and heard the turbo startin to spool, then suddenly the turbo seemed to shut down.:( started crappin my load, took it to an auto electritian he ran a diagnostic check on the car the...

My car wants to only boost to 7psi so i've checked under the bonnet and found this part loose.. I am not sure if this part will have an influence on the boost or not?

I think Ive got :gay: limp mode at the moment, Was driving home yesterday on the motorway and decided to give it some in 5th gear. Anyway the car was pulling nicely (on a clear stretch of m-way of course) and all of a sudden it felt like I hit the rev limiter although it was only on 5k in...

Have just driven home from a mates and started the journey in limp mode with no boost over 5psi.. Yep still having issues lol Anyway after about 10 minutes of driving it went back to normal and started boosting fully again... I thought you had to reset the ECU or at least turn the engine...

right here we go i have a problem with my cupra. Its going into limp mode at all kinds of speeds :confused: , the mods i have are : forge FMIC, forge TIP, forge 007p, BMC CDA and miltek cat back.

Hi, had a search for the following code 17965, and have found bits and bobs to what the problem could be. The car has a remap and the PD160 intake and its a BLT. the EGR is switched off to the best it can through VAG-COM. The car will run normally and normal speed and will be fine when...

My car quit boosting the other day so i had a poke around and ended up replacing the hose that goes from the N75 to the charge pipe (hose had a small wear mark but that was it), problem fixed instantly. Now tonight i start the car and again, no boost, not even 1 psi. Car was fine when i...

I've upped the boost by 3% using vtune on my APR map, the car is flying. My max boost is showing as 1.540 bar using Vag com. I Know that the Map sensor doesn't recognise boost levels above this. What is the actual level of overboost that will send an LCR into over boost. I have searched but...

First of all i have searched and read almost all 20 pages on this! Ive got a LC which has recently been re mapped and new dump valve. Alot of you seem to think that limp mode is caused by the MAF or other sensors but since mine has only started doin it since the re map do you think there could...

just had my coil packs replaced as i had one fail but my car still doesn't feel like it used to a month or so ago. fault codes had been cleared but there was something about a coolent sensor fault. my car does not feel like it is boosting like it should. any ideas on what it could be?

Hi, My lovely Leon Cupra is not very well. It was fine this morning, but when I started it after work it immediately was very rough and sounding a bit like a diesel (CHUG CHUG CHUG). After about 30 seconds, the Excessive Pollution/Diagnosis light started blinking at me. Car felt very...

Ok my car seems really weird when it begins to boast hard it starts to bonce and stutter and sometimes it will go into limp mode! Last night when over taking a car it went into limp mode! As you can guess the car really isnt feeling safe! Please help. Nick

Typical, you think your car is fixed, you put it up for sale, then on the first test drive it goes into limp mode!:( I had problems with my car going into LM so I changed the n75f for a new one, I thought the problem was solved. Apparently not!!! Can someone help me please! how can I stop...

Hello all :) Long time no type..... Leon has been superb from a reliability perspective, but is now mostly driven by ze missus (well someone has to hump the old porker about ;) ) This means it doesn't get the regular VNT excercise that I used to give it. Took kids to see X-Men3 last...

Went up southend and basildon lst night and car was brilliant all nigh up until i got it to 4th, kept feeling as though it was holding back when being really pushed and reminded me of when my old FR 1.8T used to retard back when it got to hot. Any way coming back along motorway at 3am and...

ok, any advice would be great please guys, just had my 007p dv, miltek turbo back forge tip and re map done and have been happy up till now, the car keeps going into limp mode and was wondering why this might be happening, please dont ignore this as im starting to get annoyed with the bloody...

I have just received a call from my Mapping guys www.e-maps.co.uk who mapped my LCR at the end of Jan06. I had the common issue people have with the LCR going into Limp Mode when stone cold after a remap, see here http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=78653 The writer has been...
