Title: Ho-Hum
Post by: marnie on 19 June 2014, 20:37
Coming from Honda I was a bit nervous about this but it's disappointing none the less. This afternoon I have had "ACC and Front Assist not available" messages/lights a couple of times. I managed to clear it by factory settings reset, but it's back now. Now at the moment I also have a permanent Catalytic Converter fault light on, and the idle speed is fluctuating by 100rpm constantly. Phone call to the dealer tomorrow. :sad:

Who's a dipstick then?! Faults caused by dipstick not fully seated. All OK now.

dippy_x. Yes the oil level dipstick. What the manual says is the Catalytic Converter fault light is in fact the Engine Management light. If that's on the other things won't work properly. If the dipstick is not sealed then the engine can't breathe properly apparently. :embarrassed:
