warning lamps

thesmokingone · 01-03-2009, 10:31 AM

so I got a service engine lamp at 4700 miles and before I could get it in to service the lamp went away. I'm taking it in to get it serviced anyway but it got me thinking that we should have a log of different warning lamps and what the outcome was. So post your warning lamp, mileage at that time and the outcome!!

Did they say anything at your service, did you even mention it? Mine came on at 6400 but went away too. Just curious...

There is such log in car, so a dealer can retrieve the data.

You can buy an OBD-II reader at any autoparts store and look up the codes yourself.
