i'm still going to keep my appointment but i'm wondering if the scanner my mechanic talked about will be able to pull out what happened before the lite went out today. will the computer buffer the errors it gets in memory or history?
those of you who have made it thru this, was the diagnosis a 1-alarm fire or a 5-alarm fire???
thanks for the help!! |
Hmm, a CEL that comes and goes usually is a MAF code or a Secondary Air Injection code.... You can still drive it like that but your performance and idle wont be so great until the issue is repaired.
