Zoek Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Can anyone help me! If I leave my car running there is a warning light comes on that looks like a box with a lighting bolt going through it and the word check on it? It also comes up when you first start the car but then dissappears!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skezza Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 A check engine light? Standard malfunction indicator. It should always illuminate before starting the car, that's to let you know it's still working. You will need to get it scanned by a friend or worst case, a local garage and proceed from there It sounds like a Pending fault, especially if it doesn't appear all the time. I'd still get it scanned. Is the car running any differently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Welcome to Club Lupo! Sounds like nothing is wrong, perhaps you hadn't noticed it before? Only worry if it stays on after starting the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoek Posted February 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 There has been chugging happening when driving! I Have put redx through the petrol tank and nothing has happened since so hopefully that has helped it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second is correct, first is not. 1 hour ago, Zoek said: There has been chugging happening when driving!

Feel free to order a bluetooth OBD2 and do it on your own phone. Android preferred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
