Limp in France

Currently awaiting a taxi to continue our journey home sans car via the AA

Car was going into limp on throttle and showing engine system fault. The limp would clear on a stop and restart, but remove cruise until stopped for longer. It would reoccur though.

The car also appeared to be a lot smokiier than normal. Black smoke.

We won't here what they plan to do with the car until a mechanic looks at it, but I'm thinking (with a little help from a friend) that it's an air leak.... Whether the AA can find a man to play with it I just don't know.

Any other suggestions gratefully appreciated!

Confirmation from the AA

Please don't fall over in shock.

It's an air hose to the Turbo.....

This pesky hose has caused a lot of expense and inconvenience. I wish they did roadside assistance in France!

Hope they took the Camembert out as I asked!
