Combustion Engine Producing Insufficient Torque

High severity

What it means

The engine torque measured (or modelled from intake/exhaust signals) is below the calibrated set point for the commanded throttle position. Causes range from low compression, intake leak, fuel pressure issue, ignition fault, to high mechanical drag.

Is it safe to drive?

No — stop driving

This code can put the vehicle into limp or reduced-power mode. Avoid extended driving and have the vehicle diagnosed promptly.
