Sure was an ordeal with Gieco fussing with the dealer over the price.

Good to hear Geico couldn't find aftermarket parts. 8-) Only the real stuff for Kizashi's. ;)

These lights also came on for me too... Reason is... i got a custom intake done at a shop and the MAF sensor was loose. The one that gave me was not a direct fit so the MAF wasnt sittin properly... Check the MAF and make sure its screwed tight and not backwards neither.. Open side has to face the front of the car... Remove ground wire from battery for 5 seconds and u should be good

Suzuki knows about the hill hold issues with Kizashi.
Anybody who is currently experiencing this issue please take it back to your authorised Suzuki dealer.
They have a Technical bulletin on this and can rectify it ASAP.

Sorry for this tangential threadjack, but what the hell is the purpose of hill hold on an automatic? Most of us with manual successfully work all three pedals at once in the same situation, are people having trouble keeping one foot on the brake and one foot on the gas?

:lol:

On my manual Kizashi, the "hill hold", if needed, is the hand brake.
