On my way to work today my VSC, VSC OFF, and the picture of the engine on the far left - guessing thats the CEL light?
Can autozone give me the error code for free or something? Havent had a single issue with the car so far! Its a 2003 with 120k. last oil change was 3100 miles ago, full synthetic of course.

Thanks

get a FREE check from autozone then report back with codes

I think he said it was f0224 - he mumbled it and said its typically bad or malfunctioning gas gap. I did get gas last night- I took the cap out and back in and made sure it clicked, lights are still on.
Thoughts?

f0224???? what is that? have it recheck and write it down. if you think its the gas cap, make sure it clicks a few turns then drive your car for a day, light should go off on its own.

reset the ecu. unplug battery for 15 mins let it sit, plug back up. make sure you dont OVER fill gas tank and make sure you screw lid back on right. let us know if this solves the CEL light

If the above doesn't fix your problem, go back and have the code pulled again. Write it down and post it.

Sorry for the delay but as you can tell from the lack of response, it was indeed the gas cap! Unplugged the battery for a while and that took care of everything. I was pleasantly surprised that I didn't have to reprogram my garagedoor opener as it was a pain!
