Hi I am looking for some info while driving my car today it appeared that I was stuck in top gear and when I put my foot down it did not change down and had very little response from the engine , I stop a few miles up the road turned it off and it all went back to normal does anyone have any ideas

Thanks

Electro-plate in the auto box is playing up, putting it into limp mode.

You need to get the codes read

It could be a simple MAF fault, if the engine power is down the box may not be able to change gear, the cars normally lock up in 2nd if a plate fault, so do get an indie to read off the fault code and take it from there
