Gurus needed....2009 R design 2.5 manual. A service required message was not cleared when last serviced (is this relevant?). Vehicle went into limp mode yesterday - NRMA had a 2 + hours delay so waited until this morning. Starts as usual, revs normally in neutral but chokes when I get to third gear - no obvious fault. I'm in Paddington and would love to escape soon and return to Castle Hill. Advice would be welcome. Tiny

Do you have an engine light on?
Common problem is fuel rail pressure sensor
Did nrma get any codes out of it for you?

G'day Tim - there is an orange indicator light on - haven't been able to access anyone with the diagnostic tools/readers to check the fuel rail pressure sensor. NRMA estimated a delay for service of at least two and a half hours. I left it in Paddington and took the iron steed home. I speculated the catalytic converter may be the culprit.
Very frustrating. Don't know who to trust in Sydney...Regards, Tiny

Let us know the outcome please. Fuel pressure sensor failed in our 2008 C30 T5 R-design manual a few years ago. Easy to replace and inexpensive to buy, so hopefully that’s the cause.
