Hello,
I am new to this forum, and I couldn't find any answers to the issues which I am having with my car. Here's the rundown.
I bought this car 4 months ago, test drive was fine, on the way home EPC and EML came on, drove it to a mechanic who claimed it was misfire, changed coil pack for cylinder 3. Car drove okay for a few days.
Car developed new issues, EPC light comes on when idling in neutral, followed by flashing EML. I timed it, it was around 90 second of idle regardless of being in neutral, or park. This problem sometimes did not happen, or happened quicker than 90s, I got around it by turned the car off at traffic lights etc. However if the EPC light came on, I could turn the car off and on again, and it would be reset, driving normally again.
About 1k miles later, car began throwing EPC light on start, I would drive a little down the road and it would go away.
Today as I pulled up to my house (luckily), EPC light came back while mid parking. I initially turned the car off and on again, however it was still there. I engaged drive, and the revs rose up by themself. There was next to no power from the pedal, so I decided to turn the car off, put it in neutral and push it into my driveway.
Here are the codes from the scan.
I was hoping someone could give me some insight, as I have no clue what it could be.
Thank you in advance!
