Peugeot 308 Limp Mode

I've got a 2023 Peugeot 308 hybrid. With 72496 km, it's started acting up. The transfer case seems to be in limp mode. The gearbox slips and shifts uncleanly. I scanned it and suspect consequential faults possibly from the ABS. Anyone else experienced something similar? I'm not very technical.

Limp mode on a 2023 308 hybrid sounds rough. Has the ABS warning light come on at all? Could be a faulty sensor messing with the gear selector. Might even be torque converter related. Worth checking diagnostic trouble codes too.

No ABS light actually. The codes point to some generic transmission errors, but nothing specific. A faulty sensor messing with the gear selector... that's an interesting thought. Is there a way to check that myself, or is it workshop territory?

If you're seeing generic transmission errors and there's no ABS light, it's difficult to pinpoint. While a sensor issue is possible, the limp mode suggests a more serious problem. Given it's a hybrid, I'd advise having it professionally diagnosed to prevent further damage.

I took it to a shop as you suggested, and they had to reset everything to clear the limp mode. It was, as you said, something with the sensors. All covered under warranty, repair cost was 0€.
