Best bet is to pull the error codes & start from there, either buy a OBD2 code reader (cheap ones £30 on ebay) or take it to a garage & have the fault codes read. What sort of/how heavy an accident has the car been in? It's possible something in the engine/drivetrain has been damaged & the ECU has gone into 'survival' mode & limited your revs to 3k. It maybe something as little as a knackered sensor or broken wire but you wont know until you read the fault codes.
