    Scan it first.

    Also, does it have a sunroof, and does the car smell damp inside?

    No sunroof.... wasnt any smells in side at all. I tried to disconnect battery. .. didnt fix limp mode. Also while i was driveing,rpms were stuck at 2000 and speedo at 5o km/h. Even when i swich off ignition ant took key out speedo and rpms didnt move... still sitting on last speed i was driveing... after i disconnect battery they went down to 0 again..

    Yeah, get it scanned and diagnosed. We're all just taking stabs in the dark here.
