Vehicle Enters 'Limp-Home' at Maximum Speed
Not heard of anyone suffering this......
TSB LA303-008
"A customer may report a concern that when traveling at maximum vehicle speed, 120mph (193kmh), the vehicle entered limp-home mode with the warning message 'Engine System Defect' displayed. The following conditions have to be met for this to occur:
Manual gear 5 was selected (not 'D' - drive).
While traveling at maximum speed, the throttle was released, the brakes were applied and the throttle reapplied in quick succession.
Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P006A will be stored in the engine control module.
Cause: A software calibration sensitivity issue detects turbocharger gas inertia changes and incorrectly suspects uncontrolled engine rpm, resulting in the engine entering limp-home mode.
Action: On a customer concern basis only regarding the above, refer to the Service Procedure detailed in this bulletin to update the engine control module software."
