Computer code P0762 - CVT in limp mode

[skyblue]

How fast is limp mode by the way? I probably wouldn't even notice if it came on

I still don't know what the op means by limp mode. Explain, please...Be specific and feel free to post what code you pulled(not the description, the actual letter and number. For example P0300, B02334a.....).

Again does the shift indicator flash when it acts up.
By "stop accelerating" on the highway after 25 mins, does the engine rev up and it just not move or do you lose throttle response or will it just not go faster than a certain speed?

So far it's clear as mud what's going on here.

Limp mode as in, car is on, but when you press the gas - the car doesnt move. The transmission makes noise (kind of rev but low rev).

Code was P0762

I didnt notice any shift indicators flashing.
The car doesnt move at all unless i let it cool down.

Can only go 35 miles an hour when it goes into limp mode.

How many miles on the car? The CVT7 is interchangeable across all years. I can say that thanks to Fummins. Find a low mile used CVT7 to drop in it.

69,xxx

Did you actually take the valve body apart? That sounds pretty complex.

It wasn't really bad. There's no gaskets. I can't remember if there were any check balls. Probably not,

There are a bunch of little filters in it.

Wow don't tell me about more filters I can change.

A cool cat has filmed it,
you're right doesn't seem to bad.

You can get a free OBDII code read at O'Reiley's, Auto Zone and Advance Auto Parts. Maybe others. Check engine light?

That's close but not quite the same. These Mirages have a Jf015e I believe. There are quite a few differences in the 30 seconds I watched. Different filters, ours have 2 halves and a tin sheet in the center, no springs inside,
