Consumer Description

PROBLEM WITH THE 'ENGINE CHECK LIGHT'. FIRST CAME ON AT ABOUT 3K MILES. DEALER SPENT FOUR HOURS AND MADE A COMMENT ABOUT THE FAULT CODE BEING ASSOCIATED WITH THE IDLE SPEED (YEAH RIGHT). THEY FOOLED WITH IT , RESET THE COMPUTER AND SENT ME AWAY. NOW IT'S BACK ON AGAIN. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE LIGHT GOES OUT BUT THEN RE-APPEARS AGAIN. IT'S BACK TO THE DEALER AGAIN. IF ANYONE HAS AN ABSOLUTE SOLUTION, I'D LOVE TO KNOW SO I CAN TELL THE DEALER WHAT TO LOOK FOR. *AK
