Just to confirm, yes, when the Engine Service Required light appears the engine is in limp mode for this fault so engine is limited to 2500rpm. Engine off/ on and fault is cleared so can then use all revs until next occurrence.
On my car the fault was latched in the computer memory so it could be read off by the garage. Not sure if the latching of the error has occurred for other sufferers of this problem. Hopefully this has helped in my case as it has narrowed down the search for the problem...
