Might be a faulty cam position sensor...
Hopefully nothing more serious than that.

camshaft sensor mate like josh said!
they play up from time 2 time! delete the fault code and reset the readness codes and chances are it wont reapear!
If it does your can scope the camshaft sensor 2 check its operation and replace if nessary!

Now that I've had chance to think about it, I had this fault once on my GTi...
I was on my way to work one morning and the Check Engine light came on and the car went into limp mode.
I turned the engine off and on again and the car ran fine. Deleted the fault code when I got home and it never happened again.
Cheers
Josh
