Hello, new here. I've been having issues with my ride lately. The wrench light came on the day after an hour or so on the track, what it does is start up but, when I apply gas nothing. I put it into gear and it will start moving very slowly but, when I give it gas; nothing. I'll stop and put it into reverse, go back a few feet and give it gas then the throttle response comes back but, is extremely sluggish, wont rev past 4k then when it's cold (anytime it's not at normal operating temp) and I try to shift, the feature that drops the revs a little and holds the rpm when shifting goes away and the rpm drops down to 1k no matter what speed I am going. I tried putting a GT350 throttle body on and it's the same stuff basically but I think it's even worse on the low side of the RPM and it has a jolt. Idk what to do. I'm broke and I dont like mechanics. Oh and I held OK while starting the car to check codes and there's a weird number like 13425 or something under the dtc.

Broke but have a new mustang?
Take it to AutoZone or some other place that will scan it for free.

Disconnect the battery for a few minutes.
Then see if you have the same issues.

Sounds like it is in limp mode to me. Did you watch your temps when you tracked it?

You need a FORScan tool to pull those codes. A regular tuner wont do it.

Wrench light and no throttle response indicates you've got something wrong with the throttle body or accelerator pedal position,

Were you doing anything to the car before this happened? If so start there,

Ok, when you say accelerator pedal position, is this something I can adjust or something to replace? Ordering forscan tool tomorrow
