That doesn’t sound like limp mode to me…

There’s still a mechanical connection from the pedal to the sensor. Sounds like that mechanical part may be binding…

jb, look at the right-hand side of the screen under the cartoony-looking Car Talk Community logo, and click on the rectangular red “Ask a Question” button.

@cdaquila - the “Recent Discussions” link at the top of the page now takes me to the “Topic Index”. Luckily, the “Recent Discussions” link under “Topics” on the right side of the page still works.

Hi - thank you for letting me know. I just saw the other comment made by another user, and I passed it on for a fix. I stickied the discussion so people can see it.

This could be a sign of a dirty throttle body as well. Have you cleaned out the throttle body recently?
