Dear Friends, I experience another episode of
EPC, TC and Engine Check Light yesterday 24/2/2013. These long story to
share my experience.
Background story:
28/1/2013-Wife complained that EPC, Traction Control (TC) and engine check suddenly light up. Engine suddenly lost power during drive. RPM limited to 1000-2000 only.
29/1/2013- Service Center full. Tried around KL and Selangor. Turned down by all SC.
30/1/2013- Managed to book appointment with Federal Auto PJ SC. The mechanic informed that my Polo ECU and DSG still in old version 1.0. I objected that i did the update last time in July 2012 in Jln Ipoh SC. Mechanic said maybe Jln Ipoh SC lied to me.
They updated the software and DSG. Problem solved until yesterday.
24/2/2013- I was driving around 30-40 kmph, when suddenly the EPC and TC light up. Car runs normally, but i stop to the side, just in case. Turn off and start the engine again. Now only CHECK ENGINE light up.
Immediately i return back to my house. I insert the OBDII dongle and run TORQUE app on my android phone.
25/2/2013- Engine Check Light still there. Drive the car from Seremban to Klang. I feel the gear change a bit sluggish. Manage to book appointment with CNB Auto SC Klang tomorrow. Will keep you all updated. Wish me luck.
26/2/2013- In the morning Engine Check Light is no more. My wife bring the car to SC at noon, and cannot find any error in the car. SC confirmed that all software is updated and advise me to come to SC immediately if the problem occur again. Even told my wife to not turn off the engine. BASKET!! Every time i have problem and call any SC, you all said bay full. Come back later tomorrow.
