MrNevermind Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Please help, my 2009 dodge journey just dropped into limp mode after 2 days of the engine light on, i checked with obd2 reader and p2002 code came up but wont clear, ive changed air filter and was running ok till today, just dropped into limp mode when i was picking my son up from work.

bigtsr Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 The VW engine used in Europe export DJs sometimes goes into limp mode because of a bad EGR assembly according to posts I have read. There are no diesel DJs in NA that's why help regarding the engine are few and far between. 2late4u 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no diesel DJs in NA that's why help regarding the engine are few and far between. The diesel engine for the EU DJ is made by VW only through 2010. From 2011 on it is made by Fiat.

cplmadison Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 im very late replying to you but I have the solution to this fault. This happened with my 2.0 diesel and you code was permanent and couldnt be cleared even with the Bosch hand held. What you need to do is this: Unplug the MAF Sensor (its the one behind the air filter box on the right hand side of the engine) Now magically there will be no limp mode, drive the car for 10-15 minutes at 60 MPH Now turn off the engine and turn back on to the ACC position, plug in your magical fault code reader, the code will now clear Plug back in the MAF sensor Now you will be out of limp mode and the fault will be gone. Too late for the OP but might help some others who find this through google Lobitz68 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
