So i have a automatic 2000 323ci that i can not get out of limp mode. It was in limp mode when i first got it and all it needed to fix it was a new maf and it worked.

Hey guys, I have a 04 325ci and today was a rough day, on my way home from work I went into limp mode. The EML and traction control went off so I pulled over and restarted the car. After that I noticed a severe loss of power but no check engine light, any ideas?

Earlier today I was driving on speed holder. Around 4krpm then had to brake quite hard down to ~3krpm and then I just went in to limp mode. Problem stay until I turn the ignition off and on. But it reappears when I know try to engine break after acceleration, same rpm as before. Letting my foot...

Hello, First time poster here. I've got a 2000 323i that is now in "limp" mode, with the EML and DSC lights on. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I've poured through countless forums and still do not have an answer. History: The car originally presented with the SES light on and a...
