    hello ive a 2015 vw passat for the last few months it has been going in and out of limp mode and no eml or fault codes shows up

    its seems to go in to limp mode when under pressure like up a hill and then comes back out of itself again, i have bought it to a few diffrent mechanics and all are confused

    all the filters have been changed a month ago , crank seal done, timing belt done, new battery, new
    alternator, octator selenoid and few pipes replaced

    dpf cleaner used and turbo cleaner used, its has been on more diagnostics machines and no code faults even vw are unable to tell me whats wrong with it

    so any help or advice would be helpful
    thanks

    If it is really limp mode, it has to leave a code.

    its has been put on all the best main code reading systems available including volkswagens main system and its been reset back to factory setting and still limp mode and no code

    thought it was the dpf a few weeks ago as soot level was 9.3 and now its down to under 3.0. thought it might be the egr value but now i think it is the turbo as i have had to top it up

    with more oil every week, if it was the turbo it should still give out a code ???

    I can’t accept real limp mode and no codes, it doesn’t add up.
