Default Limp Mode

Greetings Jag Owners! I am Arzie Gordon from Reno NV. I am a 20 year Air Force Veteran, Retired. I am now working for the VA hospital. I have a 1999 Jaguar XJ8, 4.0. My cousin misplaced the gas cap, which caused the car to start going into limp mode here and there. I've had it tuned up and filters changed. Does anyone know a way to fix this? I keep hearing throttle body and mass air flow. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Forums.

The people in the XJ8 (X308) will have the answers for that, so a quickie repost will get you sorted.

Welcome to the forum Arzie,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see you've already found your way to the X308 forum with this issue so there's no need for a link to it from me.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the US Western Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/western-us-ak-ca-nv-ut-hi-wa-id-38/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
