Default Limp Home Mode

Yes i have a 07 GT thats bad ***, this girl (real hot too) has a red little v6. So she thinks i am some sorta mustang guru and i dont want to let her down. Apparantly her car has gone into limp home mode, with the wrench and all. She took it into the dealership and they replaced the entire ECM, and it is still in limp home mode after she brought it back home. I thought she may have gotten some of the bad fuel in her car that was going around a few months ago, (The petrol used was burning hotter then usual and making the 02 sensors throw codes) but her car has not thrown any codes. What could be wrong, help me help her fix this, lol....maybe she will reward me...

ha just kidding....but not really

With the attitude you're throwing out I doubt she would even talk to you after you fix her car let alone **** the **** out of you like what you are shooting for.

Your post was so random and I know if people help you, you're just going to creep out another person when you actually get to help this chick out.

I'm sure it's a really big automotive problem, but it's not cool to participate here.

No ****.... the wrench comes on for various reasons and if its not throwing codes, you arent going to just "guess" the right solution. She needs to take it back and say fix it right this time.

+1, take it back to the dealer immediately, don't try to fix her car because if you f something up she is the one who will be paying, ford won't warranty your work. you want to get laid offer to shuttle her around while her car is in the shop.

Your SCT can readthe V6codes. Give it a shot.
