The GT86 has arrived to the Middle East, and we took some photos! (+AE86)
Hey guys,
This is my second post here, after my introduction earlier.. I currently run an automotive blog and a while ago, The first GT86 has arrived to Jordan and we were able to have our hands on it. we took a few photos and wrote a whole review for the car, you can check out the rest of the pictures here: http://www.ammaniv12.com/2012/11/dri...cion-fr-s.html I'd really appreciate it if you have any comments about this p.s: While we were driving one of the cars, "Check Engine" came on and we couldn't tell why? we left it to cool for a while and it went back off but on the other white GT86 it was on all the time .. is there a manufacturing fault known for it? |

Take it to a dealer, 99% of these are from software, and an ECU flash fixes it. |

I've also checked a few other topics here and there and it seems to be a major fault with alot of cars |

Few people had MAJOR issues, but CEL issues and other kinks are quite common... The ECU is pretty complex in this car, so its not a surprise for a first model year like this to have some kinda software problem.. luckily most of the issues are easy fixes.
