Flashing engine light

Asked by Guru3T6R2 Jul 02, 2020 at 12:48 PM about the 2011 Volkswagen CC 2.0T R-Line FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Recently I drove my 11 cc a short distance to the vet. Once there I put in park
engine still running. Then I started to feel a sputter at idle. Then the check
engine light started to flash. Could this be caused by carbon build up?

A flashing check engine light or service engine soon light is warning you that the engine is misfiring and damaging the catalytic converter. Most likely you need a tune up. Hope that helps! Jim
