glhs107 Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Took the gt350 out today and stopped at my brothers house. When I started the car and left the car felt like I was driving the parking brake on. When I got home checked the manual and the car was in limp mode...yellow wrench light with no codes. Has this happened to anyone else? Since it is Sunday I will not be able to call the dealer until tomorrow. Any one have experience with this and the cause and fix.

DubbsFaris Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Could be a thousand different things. The car doesnt go into limp mide without throwing a code...mine did it a few times...a cam sensor fault once, and a vacuum leak that was throwing misfire codes...

goin2dirt Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Had it happened on my F-250. It was the thermostat. Goes into this mode to not heat up the engine. That was my deal. Replaced the thermostat and no more issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeCMM Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Yes I have had the same thing happen, That is the exact procedure. Had the same thing happen today in the GT. Shut it down and restarted it and it cleared itself. Maybe the heat?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have an Automatic or Manual because so far its only happening to the Automatics. Too much power at once and computer can't decide how to shift it so bam goes into limp mode as is only thing I can think of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
