A few weeks ago my 11 plate Ibiza Boca started showing a flashing Emission Control Warning light but would go off a few seconds later. Then it got worse and everytime I put my foot down both the EPC and the Emission lights would go on and it would go into limp mode. Would have to turn the engine off and on to reset it.
Took it back to the dealers first time and they changed the spark plugs but the problem didn't go away.
2nd time they applied software updates and told me it was fixed and it seemed to be initially. Flooring it didn't reproduce the issue, but when driving at low speeds (10mph) it started to misfire at felt as if it was going to cut out and same at idle. The emission control light started flashing at this point again and then after a few more drives on the weekend it stayed on constantly.
Now it's back with the dealer again for its 3rd visit. The dealer doesn't seem to know whats causing it and reckons it will be with them for a few days this time round to see if they can figure it out while I'm stuck with a lovely Suzuki Swift again!
