Hi guys anyone help with a problem, filled up with diesel last night used it this morning for first time since filling up and after about 15 mins of driving it cut out orange engine light came on and said restricted performance (bad fuel

Did you definitely put diesel in it? Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate. The family car.
2009 Rimini Red SE TD4. Gone.
2006 Tonga Green i6 HSE. Gone.
Audi A5 convertible, my daily driver.
1972 Hillman Avenger GT, the project.

Yea defo …. It’s been starting fine and running all day but in restricted performance mode ..

You need to scan for error codes and also check the battery is ok. Jules

Prescient, Jules. Check Eddie's pic in the "general" section of this thread. MY11 SD4 SE Auto

I’ve been out this morning in it with amber engine light on restricted performance ect driving fine ‘ parked up for hour came back out started it up and warning light had gone ? Scared to push it to much just in case it comes back on … what u think.

FWIW

In 2020 our FL2 came up with the Restricted Engine Performance warning, unexpectedly, whilst my wife was driving to pick us up after we'd cycled the Way of the Roses. A look around could find nothing amiss so I drove, with reduced power, about 40 miles to where we were staying.
Next day, the car started perfectly.
When I got home I scanned the OBD socket but there were no error codes. The fault has not reoccurred.
I put it down to a computer glitch or my better halves driving  Jules

Haha best way blame it on the mrs ‘ it’s in garage at mo having new boots fitted and the guys are going to read the codes for me after so will let you know ..👍
