2002 Barina boggling problem

[Matty73]

Have a 2002 Barina which has been running fine till now. It starts no problem, and revs fine in Park. When put in gear it won't go beyond idling, but the car will move in Drive and Reverse while idling. It won't rev in Neutral, only in Park.

It's at the mechanic, but it's not throwing out any fault codes.

I assume this could be some kind of limp mode, but why no fault codes?

Any ideas about what's going on?

Maybe your transmission playing up? I assume that your mechanic has scanned the car though it could be the metal parts of the transmission playing up...

I have 2000 Barina which had similar issue, I replace throttle body assembly and wasn't it, so I inspected air hoses for hardness or extreme softness (sidewall collapsing in on itself) fine cracks and excess heat crazing, and found more stuffed than those operating normal) haven't had issue mustn't forget not all things are easily found. Good luck

Hi Raymond, so you're saying fixing the air hoses solved the problem?
