Not a lot of information to go on. Is it a diesel? What year? I wouldn't ignore a fault that caused a car togo into limp home mode. If it's a recent diesel, it'll probably be a DPF regeneration problem. I think peugeot use Eolys exhaust fluid to help with regeneration. If the reservoir is empty, it'll require replenishment

nb: Eolys is NOT an 'overpriced' version of adblue urea solution as some people believe. Adblue is used for dealing with NOx and has nothing to do with the particulate trap!
