Please Help -- Strange Problem

Post by Ecnerual »

Hey Guys,

Okay so heres the problem, my car drives fine but sometimes out of the blue the engine check light comes on and i lose a fair amount of power then sometimes it will go away on its own or the car will completely turn off

I have to wait a few minutes before the car will start again, i know its not a heat problem - im thinking its some sort of sensor problem

I took it to my mechanic but he couldnt find the problem because its hard to know when that light is going to come back up

has anyone had trouble like this? please help!!!

Hey mate WTTC, first off, check the engine codes. Also a bit info abouut the car would help. Is it manual or tip, gr or gpx?

As above, if it has shown the engine management light then it will have stored the error codes so they are your first port of call.

And WTTC
