2012 Ford Ranger 6 speed manual has been fixed from limp mode and recently on highway it has come back!! 3 grand later I just don't no what to do now??
Question edited for clarity and into written English.
Yes you were taken advantage of. As my old dad used to say "they saw you coming". Better to have a mature man take your vehicle for service.
Fuel pumps either work or they don't. You test them for pressure.
Very unlikely the Glow plugs were anything to do with anything as they only aid starting by heating the diesel fuel when the engine is cold.
Changing the head gasket is pretty laughable. Did they do a pressure test, and a leak down test? That is how you test. You can also test coolant for combustion fumes.
You needed an auto electrician in the first place, not someone guessing with your money.
Limp Mode only becomes active if a sensor fails and that sensor failing could cause catastrophic failure to the engine with it not working.
You need an auto electrician with a professional grade scan tool computer. They can clear the code, take your car on the highway and record EXACTLY what happens when the truck goes into Limp Mode.

1992 Dodge Caravan. I have a sound like a shock absorber which occurs when I turn left?
Shock Absorbers are easy to test. Put your hand on the front of the vehicle on each side and press down and up hard and see if the body bounces. It should be hard to press down and come back up slowly and controlled.
It could also be the springs, the upper mounting rusted away, worn ball joints, steering tie rod joints or CV Axle universal joints. All those need testing professionally on a lift.
It is 32 years old after all.

My partners 2009 Nissan Navara wont start. It makes a clicking sound but just wont start. It also has recently started overheating.
The car does have alot of km's 399,000km's.
If the battery is OK the next thing to check is the starter motor itself. It usually shows as a single click or lots of fast clicks?
For the overheating, how long after you start the engine does it start to overheat? If it takes a while, usually as the engine starts to get up to working temperature, the first thing to check is the thermostat. This is the most common thing to fail especially on higher mileage engines. Do this first as it's the cheapest fix.
Next check the serpentine/Auxillary belt. A worn or damaged belt can slip slowing the pump down. This can also show as battery charging issues.
Another cause of overheating is the waterpump failing. This can commonly be heard as a whine, chirp, or a squealing noise especially on a cold start. It can also often, but not always, be see below the pump as staining from it leaking.
Mazda etude model 2002 petrol filter location
There are two likely places. One will be under the car, on or near the fuel tank. The other location will be on the body panel at the back of the engine bay, (Firewall/Bulkhead). It is an 'Inline' filter so it commonly looks like a metal can with a pipe going into the top and bottom.
Buy the replacement filter first then you will know what the filter looks like when your looking for it.

ECM warning 56 iveco stalis
When the ECM warning light comes on on your Iveco vehicle, the engine usually slows down strongly to a very low speed: in most cases this is due to a problem with the urea pump - adblue, failing to circulate this additive.Click here to know more scegliauto

Having error code u110c with up522 and p155. Instruments go whacky fuel Guage always on e locks go up and down . Help
u110c This is a communication failure between the BCM and the PCM on the fuel level bus line. There is either a open in circuit between the BCM and PCM or faulty BCM. This requires the use of a special tool to test BUS line for an open in circuit.
The P0155 code occurs when the Power Control Module (PCM) tests the upstream heated oxygen sensor's circuit on Bank 2, or one side of a V-configured engine like a V6 or a V8, and detects a short in the circuit or too much resistance in the heater circuit
