You're lucky. I brought my '00 S in for service because of the CEL and was advised that there is crack on the the oil tube leading from the filler to the engine. They also discover a crack with the vacuum hose which causes air to enter. Among other minor things, the repair bill is approximately $ 1800.00.

I can't wait till it reaches the 60K miles service.

I need to find a different mechanic who charges cheaper labor than the dealer.
