Hi all,
Some help needed for a weird problem...
Car is a 2007 with 85k miles. Always been serviced early or on time, etc etc etc. Lately an issue has developed. From a cold start (morning) the car seems to be in limp mode. No warning lights and no codes stored. No issues with starting but there is a distinct bass note to the exhaust which isn’t normal. If I travel any distance (even a few hundred yards) and restart the car the problem disappears and will not show again, regardless of distance travelled.
My first port of call is to look at the EGR (performance and fuel economy are exactly as they should be though...).
The fact I can get rid of the problem just by restarting the car is what I can’t get my head around! Any ideas?....
Thanks in advance,
Martin
