if you stay out of limp mode for more than 4 hours.....consult your doctor....otherwise....
dissconnect your battery and wait a minute or so and reconnect. If it comes back then you have other problems.

Limp mode is when you have boost, but instead of 12 (stock) your are at about 5-6. (you can confirm this if you have a boost gauge). The most common cause is a bad MAF. It will look like this:

There are various ways to confirm this (take it off and look, vacuum test). If that isn't it, it could be bad turbo's and a bunch of other things, best advise is to do a search.
Hope this helps.
OH and DO NOT go WOT until you figure out the cause or the turbo lady is sure to visit you, you bad n00b.
(Wow! Talk about karma for me!)
