Erm, I Got A Not Tdm

I did Applecross in the Maser some years back. Dropped into limp mode about 1/3 of the way in (throttle body fault), so that was quite fun what with having both wastegates open and restricted to 2500 rpm. Had to drive all the way back home like that. The starting procedure was TB inlet pipe off, poke butterfly until closed against stop. Start engine and drive for about 5-10 miles until it went into limp mode again.

I bet that made for a very long day

 

I was nervous going up Applecross due to the weight, but the sports mode gave instant generous throttle response. Useful when you need to give it a blip to pull you up quickly out of a tight turn
