Thanks Patrick and Bob64.

The thing turns worse these days. Now it happens everyday and every time I drive. The engine do not turn off. No any warning light appears.

I would like to describe the condition more. I drive for 30 minutes from home to work in the morning for about 30km without any traffic light and almost no traff jam. And after work I drive back home for about 1 hour with some traff jam and 2-3 traffic lights. The fuel consumption is still acceptable because when the car is running the engine and the battary run well. And the engine does not turn off only when I brake the car for the traffic light. Normally it takes me 1-2 minutes waiting for the light turns.

I have already go to see the after-sale people and the guy used a computer to test my car for half a day. Then the second day he called and said he did see some irregular data but he could not tell what happens. He sent the data to Japan and wait for their reply.

Thanks for the update. If any DTC (diagnostic trouble codes) were logged by the various ECUs (electronic control units), please identify them. We can help interpret what the codes mean.

I would be very interested to know what the "irregular" data is.
