Last night I left for a short rip around, car was warm as I had it running a couple hours before.

I gave it some gas - and the rears started to break loose nicely for a few seconds then bang all lights on the dash come on - limp mode I think.

And my Engine wouldn't rev past 1200 rpm or so, I had some traffic behind me and I had to wave them past. Idle was fine - decent vacuum. But Check engine soon and traction control light on.

I had my code reader with me - parked on the side - 5 codes - sorry don't remember the 2 I erased but here they are:

P0223
P0123
P2101

Lucky I was a block or so from home - but I got it back into my garage. Again 1200 rpm is the speed of walking. I shut engine off - and restarted and got a rough idle.

Been doing some research - Throttle valve might have been dirty - so I sprayed them with carb cleaner this morning - and reset the ECU - went to got start it. And nothing - not firing. Check engine light still on and traction control light as well.

Looks like I might have to trailer it to the dealer... uggg. Any ideas?
