It's a generic message for a fault somewhere. You need to get the fault codes read. you can check if the car has a DPF - Click Here - .

Yeah it's a general code. Could mean anything. If it's gone into limp mode though that "should" narrow it down a little. I have this too and i got the 0420 code. Meaning it's something CAT related. Probably one of the Lambda/O2 sensors. Most common issues on petrols with this fault are water temp sensor and O2 sensor fault. Although the O2 sensor "shouldn't" put the car in limp mode. It hasn't on mine anyway. But a code reader is what you need.
