Hello,
So, about a month ago while i was driving, i felt a momentary lack of power, max 2 seconds, and after that on the car display it appeared the EPC warning light, visit workshop and stuff. The big problem is that, immediately after the EPC light, 2 to 3 seconds after coming on the display, the engine just shuts down.
So after the first episode i took it to my local mechanic and he started looking at the electrical circuit and found a small electrical fault that he fixed, thinking that was causing the problem, reprogramming the injection module and checking the ECU.
Today it happen again. I drove it every single day for the last 12 days in the city, and today i did a small trip, nothing big, the car never failed, did 180km/h super chill, nothing during, but when i got back to city area it just died.
Any one with a similar EPC killing engine story with some knowledge to share?
