As what I told onijoseph before, it may be a case of pressure difference in fuel tank that causes the engine check light to come on. A loose fuel cap is also possible, but I changed my views a little bit on that. A loose fuel cap may cause the engine light to come up as the fuel pump requires pressure to work (for carburetor cars), and that the change or lack in pressure can be detected by the fuel pump sensor in the tank (both carburetor AND fuel injection cars), thus causing the light to be on. If the fuel tank is tightly shut, when you go uphill/downhill there are pressure changes around the tank, but not in the tank.

Guys that've been up Genting with me before in my car would know exactly what I'm saying. All the empty bottles lying in my car that are tightly sealed expand/shrank due to pressure changes. Good demo.

But if you send your car to SC and they check, even if the light is already off, there still should be a log of what's bad.

How I wish that it's like BMW/Porsche's system where they tell you directly what's the problem on the dashboard monitor

O2Sensor? An O2Sensor that's not working will not suddenly jump back to work. I'm not saying that a faulty O2Sensor would not cause the engine light to come up, but if it's left untouched and your car is still new, there is no reason it would cause the engine check light on.

Yup need to leave there coz alot of work..Maybe izzit due to ambi pur?LOL..all these years no problem 1 leh..after i change the coil oso no prob..but a few days later,oni it comes..i even tried to off the compressor and let direct fresh air flow thru the vents..still cannot.

Understand what you mean, however authorize SC such as pride region was asking for RM64 for check.
I think i gonna go pure proton edar sc for a free check.

That fellow told me the owner's manual got mention diagnosis is not free.

Actually i got one lavender smell which ppl put on the cupboard.

But .... seems like not helping coz the smell is stronger then the fragrance.

U muz go to main SC la..Authorized SC wan cari makan 1 la bro.

Ya i understand that. Just that i din realize just to check got error or not so simple job also need RM64 , that was ridiculous.

Which SC u went? Kasi blacklist!

weird

coz I suspect is just some kind of sensor is wet, hence the check engine light is on. Then after a few days, the sensor kering balik so the light is gone. Quite common case in Saga if the car went through flood. But your car dint go for a swim...

Pride Region Sri Gombak , last time is so call EON SC but now been take over if i not wrong is by shiang hin group.

Suspect ka? Sensors that are not in the engine usually are more durable than they look la..

Sri Gombak? Any Siang Hin's SC already blacklisted lo.. Especially Gombak & Genting Klang ones..

I think might be the petrol tank pressure which mention by xandras

But also wired this morning is still Light ON until i reach SC off engine and start again.

By the way, since now already off, i plan to drive until coming saturday send to Maluri Proton Edar SC check check see how later.

As long as the light is not Blinking , is still ok for drive.

ayam not pro hai. so suspek oni.

Hahaha looks like we gonna blacklist all shiang hin's SC (kecuali the one at Jalan Tun Razak which the 1st one found the metal knocking sound if i not wrong)

I think that one also belongs to shiang hin, coz i found their address in shiang hin website also.

It takes time before the light goes away, if it is really fuel pump sensor issue..

Maybe under different management gua.. That's why better service..

xan's explaination is reasonable now.
maybe some sensors inside the fuel tank give false alarm due to atmospheric change.

RM45/pcs

Sry zen. Tot u were saying rm45/pcs. If pair then really cheap lor... 50% discount. should get 1 for me la

Somehow I got a feeling K.Lee is gonna love this..

Enjoy folks!
