On our return trip from Leesburg yestarday we were just cruising along about 50mph and all of a sudden the engine started missing for about 3 seconds, and the screen flashed a message "LIMP MODE".
My wife started laughing--saying I get that alot:dontknow:
We pulled over safely and attempted to access the problem. There were 2 lights flashing in the tachometer. It was hard to see as the sun was shining brightly, but there was also a symbol that appeared at the bottom of the LCD display that showed a steering issue.
The engine was still running so we prodeeded caustiously down the road 1/4 mile where we could get farther off of the road.
I shut the engine off, waited for the LCD to go black, counted to 10, rebooted the computer, started the engine, and drove away.
The problem never returned the rest of the 70 miles home.
Any one had a similar problem?
Thanks C-YA RL
