Damn, I'm back with a similiar problem. Three weeks after the throttle body was replaced, Sprint booster long removed, transmission fluid and seal replaced ( turns out there was a slow leak) I went into a massive "limp mode" today at the end of a 100 mile trip. When I restarted to pull the car into the driveway the engine shuddered as if it were about to stall. No power at the throttle. When I put it into drive it "limped' along at about 3 mph till I put it into the driveway. The engine bay smelled like burnt plastic. After 20 minutes I restarted and all was well ( besides the check engine light being on.) Anybody know of a mechanic near Stamford Ct that can handle a srt6? These guys at my dealership have no clue and I don't want the car to sit there for another two weeks.

Thanks

Paulius
