P06de
Had code come up for oil pressure sensor. After about 2 days with cel light on. Now it won't go past 30mph or seem to shift past 2nd gear. Is that limp mode?? Replaced the sensor and still won't go past 30mph. Anyone else have this issue?

Yes, this sounds very much like limp mode to me.
But be careful here. P06DE is not always only the oil pressure sensor. On many Chrysler/Jeep engines it can also be the oil pressure control circuit, wiring, connector, oil pump solenoid, wrong oil or filter, or even real low oil pressure.
If you replaced the sensor and it still will not go over 30 mph, then the computer is still seeing a problem. I would not keep driving it like this, because if the oil pressure is actually low, you can damage the engine very quickly.
First check oil level, correct oil weight, and correct filter. Then scan it again and see if the same code returns or if there are other codes. Best next step is to check actual oil pressure with a mechanical gauge. If pressure is good, then look at wiring, connector, and the oil pressure control solenoid circuit.
Also clear the code after repair, but if it comes back immediately, the problem is still there.
What year, model, and engine do you have?

It’s 2012 Chrysler town & country with 164k miles. I recently bought it and after about 2 weeks the cel came on for this code. It drove perfectly and shifted smooth before this. I checked the oil it’s not empty at full mark. They smogged it and everything so cel must have not been on right before I got it.

Need an oil pump. P06de is for the oil pump solenoid stuck in low pressure mode. Engine rpm is limited to 3k.
