Funny idling? Hmm, not really, it was pretty normal sounding. Just gutless! Where exactly is the throttle body on these things? I'm not seeing it right away like on my old petrol car. And no, haven't checked the error code yet, don't have a reader.

Okay, if the idling is normal, then clogged throttle body is less likely. However, based on my experience and the check engine light, you're likely facing a defective accelerator pedal module or its internal electronic failure. Seriously, just skip fiddling around and bring it to a workshop. They charged me 265€ in the end.

Appreciate the help. I was hoping it'd be something simple, but sounds like it's beyond my capabilities. Booked it in at the workshop. Hopefully, it won't cost me an arm and a leg!

Sounds rough! I had something similar happen on my Mokka. Was your engine idling funny before it went full-on limp mode? Maybe check the throttle body and air intake for any gunk build-up affecting the airflow. Did you try reading out the error code?
