Welcome to NICO! Sorry you're having trouble with you car. Anything recently happen to the car? (Accident, mods, anything)

Limp mode is not necessarily caused by the VDC system; the VDC may be a symptom of a larger issue. You should take it to a dealer to scan the ECU...they have tools to diagnose that other mechanics might not have.

Not throttle cable. Actually it is TPS (throttle position sensor). I would have it repaired at dealership.

If your mechanic said it was a throttle cable, you need to go somewhere else!!! These cars are drive by wire.
