A flashing check engine light indicates a potentially severe condition, often related to engine misfires that can overheat the catalytic converter or cause immediate drivetrain damage.

Our technicians at Land Rover Sudbury will perform a thorough diagnostic scan and live-data review to identify misfire sources — ignition, fuel delivery, or sensor failures.
