When I was on way the car gives a tone after that shows engine light and drop the power. Now does not have power like before. Now when I start it shows in the clock a message depollution system faulty.

Thanks

Hello.

You car is in limp mode and will stay there until the DFP service is completed and the service reminder turned off. This is for the cars own good. You can hurt the engine or exhaust system if you keep driving it in this condition.

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken
