EPC code, Engine check light, ABS Light.

Post by KyleShackleton »

Little back story the car is a polo 13 plate, recently had an issue where the car will idle and stall I replaced the spark plugs, fuel filter, oil filter and gave it an oil change this past saturday

Car seemed okay but today it's back to doing what it would before, dropping revs when putting the clutch in and stalling when idling.

Then today the EPC light came on which obviously puts the car in to limp mode..

Initially I imagined the problem would be the MAF/MAP sensor but since the EPC light came on I'm now more learning towards it being something to do with the throttle body?

Anyone had a similar experience? All help is appreciated,

Cheers

Surely would be helpful to tell what engine we're talking about.

Did you do a read-out of any error codes in the engine management?
