hey verona owners i have the same experience like every owners have the engine ligts on,but guess what,i solve that problem al ready how?i tok my verona to my mechanic and he told me if i put gas whit the engine on,and i told him yes,and he told me thats the reason the engine ligts is on ,and he shut the engine ligt off whit hes computer.and guess what he was rigth,every time i go to the gas station i turn the engine off before i put gas on my verona,and the engine ligth never come on any more,oh and he told me thats the reason the oxigen sensor go bad when you put gas when the engine is on, that many verona owners have that problem.another thing i notice when i star my verona in the mornig the car make a noise like nocking in the engine head and like 3 minutes later when the car get warm the noise go away , my opinion i think that the oil take to long to lubricated the whole engine,so i dont recomend to run the verona when is cold is better to whait in to the car get warm, thats maybe the reason that many verona owners complaint that they have to replace the engine head in their verona maybe they run the car cold .my verona have 78000mil,and no major problem yet,this is my experience,and it work on my verona, good luck verona owners.willy11206aol.com

hey poulsbokid i got you message so you say you turn the engine off before you put gas in your verona,and your engine ligth continue on,maybe your problem is not related whit the gas,have you check auto zone for the free diagnostig whit the engine ligth on, and if you dit what they tell you.because when i dit my free diagnostic they guy from auto zone told me thats was a gas cap was bad,and some evaporation in my gas system,and i went to the suzuki dealer,and the thecnitian check my car with theyr computer and guess what the suzuki dealer computer show the same thing like the auto zone computer,and thats when he ask me if i put gas whith the engine onand i told him the tru that evrey time i go to the gas station i put gas whit the engine on,and he shut the engine ligth off and told me shut the engine off before you put gas,and realy work engine ligth dint come back anymore.good luck.

I am new at this so please forgive me. What was wrong with your engine that the dealer was replacing it? The reason that I ask is because we have an 04 with 104,000 miles on it, we have given it all the oil changes when they were supposed to be done we had a tune up when it was needed as well. We were just told by the dealer that my 5th and 6th cylinders are misfiring and that they need to be replaced. They have told us for them to do the work it will be very expensive. The car isn't worth as much as they want to charge and we still owe on it. We haven't had all the problems that other people have had with the engine but we have had some other crazy stuff. If you can inlighten me I would really appreciate it.

I am in the same situation. My rings are blown on multiple cylinders on my 04 with 120k miles. I am currently saving up the money to put a replacement engine in since im past my warranty.

Have you tried contacting the corporate office to see if they are willing to help? We haven't yet either (we are trying to figure out what our next step is) but I think that an engine on a car should last more then 120K. Or in my case more then 104K. DId you keep up on your regular maintenance? I wonder how many more people are out there in our same situation.

wow i was checking your post about your 04 verona and two cilynders are bad, my question is how the car fell whit two bad cilynder,the engine make noise,my 04 verona make a nocking noise but only when is cold when is warm the noise go away,the suzuki company cant do nothing to help you i check that your power train waranty expired you have 104.000 mil. if that cilynder replacement is so expensive in the suzuki dealer why you dont take your car to a regular mechanic to check how much would charge you,buy the cilynder from the dealer and let the regular mechanic doit for you, make sure is a good mechanic and find out how much is the labor before you buy the cylinder,i understand labor is very expensive at the dealer . good luck

I am not sure how the cylinders went bad on the car. Like I said before an engine should last longer then 104K. I understand that it isn't under warantee but give me a break. We are looking into other mechanic shops that we trust to see what their proce might be, but I am still going to contact Suzuki. One of my previous cars had 198K before I got rid of it and I never had engine trouble. And that car cost 10K less brand new. From what I hear this is a common thing among Suzuki engines and I think that something needs to be done. I am not asking that they buy my car back or pay it off, but I think that they are aware of this problem and need to rectify the situations. About your problem I have no idea. We never had any knocking noise in the engine.
