stupid 2500 limiter *FIXED*
« on: Nov 17, 2007, 05:26PM »
my car seems to be going into 'limp home mode' all the time, your driving along and then all of a sudden the stupid thing wont rev past 2500 rpm. When it first happened my speedo stopped working at the same time and i have since swapped speedos and it still doesn t work. i dont know WTF is going on. anyone got any ideas?

it's in limp home mode. do a diagnostic test. Search for the full service manual if you want

Speed sensor.
Ill fight you. May even throw a bar of soap your way. Maybe a few wax strips and some clip on brembo brake calipers for your fooly sic civic.

i found that it didn't go into limp mode until the next time you started the car.
