Hi
Since i bought my S1 vn a few months ago the engine light has came on and off throughout each drive. When the engine light is off the car runs REALLY smooth, has plenty of power etc, when the engine light is on it lacks power (probally about 20%less), idles rough and gear changes are harsher and at a higher rpm.
Any way this is a typical drive in the morning. Start the car in the morning and drive to work (5mins) with the engine light off , thats fine, a smooth drive. After work start it up, engine light is always on after work, it lacks power etc etc.
also temperature doesn't seem to affect it. Sometimes when i am driving the car will surge and the engine light will either switch on or off. If the engine light is off and it idles for too long (about 60seconds) at the lights it will usually stall, start it back up and the engine light is on.
Its really confusing me because it will always start straight back up but the engine light will either come on or off.
I have no other parts to use so I would prefer to know what it is b4 buying anything.
Also it is coming up with code 42.
I just had it serviced at automasters (major service) and they just said that it requires further investigation $$$$$
Thanks, sorry if it is a bit confusing lol
