ED was left in Topeka, KS and Steven (KrusTTy) in St. Louis.

Schwing is staying over before his trip to NC.

Pictures later as we're beat...

Default Just arrived also but not near as long a trip. Car went into limp mode.

I was leaving Durango taking the same route we took for both drives. I got near the top of the first hill leaving Durango when the car went into limp mode. The dash showed the EPC light and the ESP light but no CEL? I did a quick U-turn and coasted back to the Doubletree. Killed the engine and checked for loose items under the hood but nothing obvious. Restarted the engine and everything was fine. However, I decided to go back via Farmington instead of Cortez thus avoiding the mountains. I had no other incidents, sometimes cruising at 100 mph. I know other folks had similar problems on the drives. Wonder if the TT is just tempermental at high altitude but I had no other problems in the mountains that weekend.

Default Had similar problem

On the way up so had to limp into Scottsdale Audi who suggested my chip needed reflash... but good ole Scott from Revo did his magic and made the drive + home with no more limpmadness. Glad you made it home safefly.

Default My "limp" was pretty severe - could not go above 1k rpm

Had it not fixed itself - I would have needed a tow to the nearest garage. Fortunately, that was not necessary.

Default I went into soft limp with no CEL after the run up the pass out of Ouray...>>>

I was riding the car really hard though and likely the Revo , altitude and temp all played a part. I used Bob's SPS3 to set to stock and back to performance and all was good.

Default Yeah, with my APR in 93 mode and the altitude, I had to put it in stock...>>

mode as I was pushing close to 24psi up the mountain.

Once we left Durango, I switched back to 93 and took it easy. Finally in KY, we had 93 octane...:-)
