    Limp mode?

    Hi everyone. I have a 85 735i that I bought a couple months ago. The person I bought it from had the transmission rebuilt a couple years ago. However, sometimes the car seems like it goes into limp mode - it won’t go past 2500 rpm and the transmission light goes on. But when I shut off the car and turn it back on, the transmission light is off and it’ll go well past 2500 rpm. What would be causing this?
