Some of these might be irrelivent but as you mentioned it goes into limp mode occasionaly you might be looking at code 17957 as this is the N75 valve (the boost controller) which could throw the turbo into overboost and in turn limp mode!With the codes now cleared you probably wont see the ECU light come on until you hit limp mode again, you can see the symptoms of each individual fault code here : http://wiki.ross-tech.com/index.php/Main_Page
You put the fault code number into the search box and it gives you a list of what it could be and how to rectify! The description for 17957 is:
Possible Symptoms* Irregular behaviour
* Loss of power
* Limp modePossible Causes
* Wiring and/or connections faulty (short circuit)
* N75 faultyPossible Solutions
* Check wiring and connections
* Check / Replace N75You can get this info for all the codes but it might not help you yet! We need to see what code comes back (if anything!)
If / When the ECU light comes on again you are welcome to pop down and il read it for you again or you can buy this cable:
Download the software from http://www.ross-tech.com (will post the proper link later!)
You will be able to read and clear the fault codes using this! (the software is a free download FYI!)
