Engine light...

just came on in my car. So it has warranty on it....I can take it to any dealership right?

True dat, any dealership, might be hard on Saturday to get it done though!

Ill probably have my brother take it during the week. I look like a goofball driving it

I would call the dealership you bought it from and B&^$% at them. WTF !

They are 4 hours away. What am I gonna say?

you can take it to autozone and they will read the code and clear it for free. might have just been a small glitch. that would save you the drive and if it says anything serious the light will come back and then you can take it to the dealer

Shit happens sometimes, why wouldn't the dealership fix the light if knew the light was on when they had it, it was under warranty. She probably put 400-500 miles on it, sometimes sensors just go bad. Now if it was out of warranty, I would be calling that dealership up and having them pay for it, but in her case, just drop it off and it will get fixed.

Anyone would be able to check the code with there tuner right?

I would think you would be able to pull the codes with an x-cal, but I am not 100% sure on that.

Ill run a diagnostic on it when I get home

The x-cal can read the trouble code.

Ditto.... Xcal can do it.

it can also clear the code. i just had to clear one on mine after driving it for the first time in over a month.

so whats the code?

and i have the answers....it all makes sense now! Chaching

????
is it a warranty issue? plz do tell

I havent called them yet....I will when I get free from these dang phones!

my nissan has a service engine light,can it be reset with the x-cal?

I think so. I had my XCal make me a sandwich the other day. They're pretty amazing.

nice! My SCT X3 gave me a back massage last night. it was pretty awesome.

I just now took my car in today for this

and........................................

well, whats the problem? were dying to know.

They havent called yet so Idk! I took it in at 9:45 though. I am also having them look at my wheels. My car shakes so bad it vibrates my rearview mirror.....very annoying!

you know you could give em a call and find out what code it was throwing at you.

i've never really liked being left in the dark about what there doing to my car.

If I took my car into a ford dealership that i've never been to, just to get it serviced, i'd chew my nails clear off

i hope you don't take it to a stealership for service.

Well they are keeping it over night because they don't know what's wrong. Say the Engine light keeps coming on and they have to do more testing tomorrow. Good thing its still under warranty

Maybe we should let them use one of our SCTs...

Or the internet to search for what the code its throwing is???? Thats what I did the first of 4 times I have now thrown the P0174 code

Well they fixed it once then test drove it to see about the shaking and the light came back on...Of course this was 3:30 and they had the dang car ALL DAY and had to keep it. I miss Zoey
