  22. << Does sound like 'limp home mode' and I was going to suggest checking all the connections to intake sensors, but I'm guessing the specialist will have done that already. Maybe a manifold gasket or similar ? Sad news - hope you get it fixed soon. Dave >> Yeah he said he checked them all out and its nothing to do with them, thinks its maybe piston or coilpack problems, its getting taken away on a low loader on Tuesday to his workshop to get compression tested then everything else checked out. Think this is going to hurt my wallet
