Message: <blockquote data-quote="touge80" data-source="post: 4536176" data-attributes="member: 77424">The diagnostic(as well as the tuning) has being done at proton SC after the first time Check Engine light turned on(the mechanic brought it there since he didn't have the diagnostic tool) and it detected the sensor failure(or something like that, I can't recall) but when the sensor being replaced, nothing changed so the car went back to the Proton SC for diagnostic and again it detected sensor error. This happened few times(and back to Proton SC for diagnostic). Finally we changed all the suspected sensor but still the Check Engine light turned on. My brother try to ask an opinion from another mechanic(other workshop) and the mechanic said as for the sensor it might be the Knock Sensor failure since he said from his experience, sometimes after the top overhaul(during dismantle and reassemble) the sensor might being damaged. I've done my own research on the internet(2carpros.com) and I found out that they claimed "When a thermostat malfunctions it can stick in the closed position not allowing the coolant to circulate, causing the engine to overheat. This will cause the vehicle to overheat in a very short amount of time (about 5 minutes). Or the thermostat could stick open causing the engine to run too cold. In this case the service or check engine soon light could illuminate, followed by a trouble code."Also in the internet, another mechanic also stated the same but he said it not happens in all cases and that's why I think they(both mechanics) stated could/might be illuminate instead of will illuminate. I think the situation where the thermostat stick open is same with the situation where my brother is not using the thermostat now isn't it? I've ask the Proton SC technician(during the diagnostic) either by not using the thermostat could causing the Trouble Code or not, but he wasn't sure. This morning my brother came to my house and he found out little oil(seems like the hot oil vaporized from the head gasket) came out from the head gasket. Is this leak can cause to Check Engine light turn on?Please all sifus help my brother.<img src="https://zerotohundred.com/forums/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/adore.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":adore:" title="adore    :adore:" data-shortname=":adore:" /></blockquote>
