[QUOTE="badass_ck, post: 722417, member: 25296"] It is rather unfortunate that the problem still persists. Last Friday, I left my car to the workshop and on Saturday, I got a call to inform that they 'detected' the problem. I confirmed a few times and they said one of the sensors caused the problem. I agreed to replace it as advised by the owner of the shop. On Monday at about 3 pm I collected my car. I managed to start it without any problem. Once, I reached my house at about 4pm. It remained until this morning. The "Essentric Sensor (used)" costs me RM 400 and "Essentric Sensor Cover" costs me RM 80. I didnt snap a pic because I was so excited that my car was fixed but sigh.... When I started my car at about 9.40 am, the problem recurred. [B]RPM was about 800 dropped 7-600 and fluctuated for a bit then the engine went dead[/B]. I called the workshop immediately and put him on speaker to show that the car can't start. He was perplexed to and said he had never encounter such problem. I wonder what else I can do. I have resent my car to the workshop and I am going to go over to the workshop to restart the car. Dear Sifus, Can anyone help me on this? :( Thanks. [/QUOTE]
