Just went to pick up wife from shopping,approx 2 miles from home when on the way back the EPC light came on my dashboard and the engine revs went down to approx 1000 rpm.I immediately pulled over and switched off, then restarted the engine.Started fine but the EPC light intermittently went on and off for a minute or so then stayed off so I gently drove home.Was wondering if this has anything to do with my brake pad warning light that came on yesterday as the pads are now low, if so I can replace the pads and hopefully this will sort out the EPC issue.
So my question is really is would it be likely the the engine management system would cut in if there are brake pads that needs replacing.I fear that these two are not related and that I will need to get a full diagnosis next week from my local diagnostic specialist and there is something more serious with the vehicle.
Any views welcomed.
