It could be something as simple as a misfire on the sparkplug. it happened to me and then after about 30 or 40 miles it went off. I still got it checked out and it was a misfire. It also could be the coils.... which are under warranty.

Good luck and keep us posted

Paulie

The same thing happened to me!!! Guess what it was?.. I had completly forgot to put the gas cap back on. I was so excited to get back in my car and that happened. It was like my second fill-up, though. That's still no excuse.
The check engine light came on, but then it went off after a couple days.
Get it checked, buddy....

I also have engine light come on at 3500 km. I bring back to dealer, They told me one electronic control valve to control the air pump was broken. They change it and is under warranty. Right now is ok!
I also have EPS light come on at 350km, no power steering, bring back to dealer, they reset it and is ok now. But that make me so scare about the car!!!
