    Holden Colorado 2014: Diesel light coming on

    Holden Holden Advice Holden Colorado Holden Colorado Advice Holden Colorado 2014

    Last week the engine management on my son’s 2014 Holden Colorado diesel light came on, so he parked the car and took it to the nearest Holden dealer the following morning, even though the light had gone out by then. He was told to leave it there and they would look at it on the 4th of Feb. As the car is still under warranty he rang the dealer he bought the car off and was told they could do nothing until the 9th Feb. This means that he will have to wait at least two weeks to have someone look at his car, which is under warranty. As he has reported the engine light issue, but it has gone out, is he safe to pick the car up and drive it as long as the light does not come back on? I think having to wait two weeks is ridiculous. What do you think?

    I agree that two weeks is too long to have to wait, the dealer’s workshop is poorly organized if he has to wait that long. I wouldn’t be concerned about driving the car of the light is not illuminated, if it comes on again, stop and turn the ignition off and on again. That might be enough to reboot the computer and keep you going. If it’s coming on regularly then certainly have the cause investigated.
