- xr6 turbo tuned to 300 rwkw's. VF SSV
2014 VF Evoke LPG wagon. whenever I don't drive it for a week or so I get the "service ESP" warning plus check engine light and the engine has rough idle. It has happened every time I have registered my other car instead and the VF has been left sitting for a couple of weeks.
The problem self corrects when I start driving it again usually after 100 or so KM's.
Does a state of low battery due to not being driven cause this? I disconnected the battery then reconnected and started it and the problem had gone away. Then while sitting in it after starting it all was fine then it happened again.
Could it be a Holden gremlin programmed in it once left standing for a while, so that it has to be booked in to turn it off? LOL
It has self corrected every time once I start driving it again, never shows up when driven daily.
I am using my other car at the moment, the VF is not registered. I will be selling the VF soon (getting a VF SV6 or SS) so it will correct itself once driven daily, I don't think that just starting it daily is enough to avoid the ESP alert showing while not being driven.
Probably need to check for OBD2 error codes.
