I think the majority of the members here would agree with me in saying that you'd be crazy to drive your car with a CEL.

My recommendation is to not drive it, get it checked, do some research on it, and come back here for feedback. Only after you're sure that driving won't harm the engine should you drive it.

But then again, you might have the 10K it costs to replace the engine. In that case, drive on!

Just today the CEL came on and I suspect it's the 1530 code posting. I have researched and it seems to be a solonoid as the usual problem. My question is since the car seems to run fine and idles fine can damage be done by driving it like this? I really don't notice any issues when driving.
