You're in limp mode. Read the ECU codes.

Well this is pretty much limp mode if you can't rev past 2k. The only thing I remember that S5's are caused to go into limp mod is the MOP there are probably some other triggers of limp mod but I don't remember them. Check the lines see if they are broken and check the MOP itself. I think there is a procedure in the FSM check it out.
