Limp mode!

Well that didn't take long

Driving home from dinner tonight. Accelerating into the interstate. Something made a weird noise. Check engine light came on. Car is in limp mode.

Ugh.

Gotta love a quick diagnosis that’s not only a simple solution but an opportunity to upgrade.

Any solution yet ?
Yeah, it was the charge pipe. Replaced. All good now. And apparently it was not limp mode. Sorry for my misunderstanding. The half orange check engine light came on, and the car lost some power. But was still able to make 60 mph easily.

Glad it's fixed now.
