| Limp Mode at least 5 times today |
|
Had this today. HDC fault, transmission fault, limited gears, park brake fault and suspension lowers.
I've not got a FCR, but I will get one. Was only driving slow, under 30 mph, when it happened. Turned off and on but it happened another 4 times during the 3 mile drive home.
It's an 08 and I have D4 rear lights so not bulb out. Took brake light switch out and replaced. I know I need it plugging in but anything easy I can check in the meantime would be a great help.
Cheers

D3 gone but never forgotten.

... didn't potential that slurping fuel at a higher than normal rate might have triggered your other recent fault get mentioned on Sunday ? 
sprung to mind straight away as I've had a couple of Fiats that did similar.

Mine was doing this and turned out to be a speed sensor - rear near side had wire chafed and was shorting so you really do have to get the old girl plugged in and probably, all will be revealed.

Does the D4 have the same ECU behind the battery as the D3? If so check the contacts Dave

Mine was doing this, it ended up being the HPFP, once replaced it hasn't happened again.
Obviously it depends on what codes you pull up.
