Not too long ago My car started going into limp mode, and no check engine light came on...

unfortuneately I bought a car that was lacking a CEL...

Anyways, I could just restart the car to solve the problem quickly, but after speaking to the previous owner he said it was the sensor that was the problem.

I replaced the sensor, and reset everything...

all is well for a few days, and now it randomly jumps into limpmode...then later on in the day when I go to drive my car again its fine...and it will go back into it at random times...

so did i miss somthing, someone told me i'd have to remove the timing belt and apparently I didnt have too, because I swapped sensors without the belt coming off...

anything else i might wanna check? the magnet on the gear, any way to correctly reset the ecu...etc..?

any input would be much appreciated
