Hi peers,

Anyone exprience P0172 error with the yellow engine warning light lited?

Clean the MAF sensor (delicately of course) but light still persists. Possible if fuel pump is wearing out?

Any advise is much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Peers,

The strangiest thing in all my years of driving. I was goggling and came across a very unlikely remedy in youtube and it works!

Following the recommendation, I open the fuel lid, unscrew the fuel plug and you can hear a gassing sound like burping...hahha. After that close everything back and the CEL went off.

Case CLOSED.

Nope....Just unplug and plug it back. There is some gassing noise like release of pressure. Simple action save me a few hundred $. :wink:
