You must have the engine computer scanned for fault codes, very seldom does a fault disable the engine.

Brake caliper bolt torque settings for merc a170 cdi im cleaning the calipers and replacing pads, on rear brakes, would like to know the torque settings for the bolts

A quick phonecall to the service department of your local dealer should confirm what they should be. Alternativlely you could check the current tightness of the bolts on the caliper you haven't disturbed yet. I'd estimate around 60nm should be correct.

2003 toyota avalon gets check engine light and goes when idleing

Take the car to a local Auto Parts Retailer, and have them check the fault codes on your on-board computer. Given the year of your car, it is probably an OBD-2 type computer. They can print out whatever the computer diagnostic says the problem is. I am going to guess the throttle position sensor is to blame since it sounds just like what my sister's Mazda Mommyvan was doing.

Suzuki baleno indicator/light switch fault

The problem is probably caused by moist in the fusebox / relaybox inside the cocpit. It's placed on the drivers side below the steering wheel. In my case it was sufficient to dry it by using a heater fan for couple of hours ( over night ). Afterwards I used CRC for electrical circuits, and sprayed everything as goods as possible. It has now been working fine for more than a year, so it might be worth trying.....
