    Default check engine

    hi all,,,
    how u doing?
    hope to find an answer for my issue

    i have an message coming through my center display

    (( check engine ))

    that message shows only after the engine warm up
    and also if i drive the car below 90 km/h

    i checked the throttle and i cleaned it, i checked all the wiring,even i changed the engine oil

    when that message shows in the display the car RPM it will shudder between 400 to 650 RPM.

    seems that the engine wanna turn off but it doesn't turned off....

    notice: above 90km/h that message will not appear.

    hope u guys to help me to solve my issue.

    Check engine is a very general error. Could mean many things, sometimes it even shows up when there is no need to.

    As to what i would check, check your vac lines. If one of those falls off it creates shudders and your engine wanting to stall. Vac lines has been the most common cause of symptoms like this.

    If not a vac line give a yell back, but i'd be putting my money on that,
