these limp modes are associated with things that are not performing in the BMW specified thresholds, but in the real world work ok. Mine will limp from time to time, and with no reason I can feel see or hear other then the computer sees some pid falling off ever so slightly.

I am not sure if a catless downpipe would cause a truck to limp, I do know it would have a CEL without tuning.
