Hello. When I start my Car when it is cold, after some seconds of normal work makes a small vibration and the engine light comes up.I reset the error but when I start the Car the next day it makes the vibration and the light comes again. Can you help me with this?What should I do to fix this?Thanks!(I am a motorbike mechanic but not expert to cars)

Hi:

I don't know where you're located, but in most places, parts stores, like Auto Zone, will scan it for free.

Hello my friend. It is great here in GREECE! You should come some day.I want some day to visit america too.
I fixed my Car by myself.I cleaned the fuel regulator and the injectors and I erase the engine light with my NEW code reader. Since then it Works perfect.
Thank you very much

I'm glad you fixed it. Someday, I hope I can visit, but the way life is, there is always something new that needs dealt with. I hope someday you can visit here too. America is also a beautiful place.

Take care of yourself.
