Re: Car gone into limp mode, no warning light!

Re: Coolant temp goes down after high rpm

So far yes, but the journey is half hour if that and only 10-15 on the motorway some in traffic.

Re: Power steering issue :/

I had an issue with my power steering a few months ago like this...however mine wouldn't throw a light on. Mine was the power steering ecu in the end.

Hope you get it sorted mate, if you need a PS ECU or Driver then I have spares here.

Re: looking to buy a Mk2 Turbo.
