Re: RS6 C5 New Onwer FON - Car gone into Limp Mode

Ok thanks very much for the replies guys. Was hoping it might be something less dramatic, didn't notice any strange noises or smoke prior to the incident. Do you think it's a definite no no to drive it gently to the specialist? I dread to think how much this is going to cost to rectify!
