    Hi all,

    Have an 03 suzuki grand vitara and today the check engine light came on. :( I check the oil and the engine & everything looks fine. Anyone have any idea what it might be?

    Thanks in advance

    The lambda sensor (or however you spell it) or air filter.
    Probably need a diagnostic tool to get the fault code.
    Still driving ok and running fine no odd noises?

    Thanks for the fast reply. It's driving perfect but I'm afraid to keep driving it. Must get the diagnostic test done

    I only bought it in August, so it should be under warranty. Only problem is I bought it in Tipperary, so if it has to go back I'll be carless!!
