First off carbon build up only for the 2.5L engine 250. Second off with out getting the code scan nobody can really say what your issue. It can be something simple as a gas cap. Won't know till you find the code.

MIL light will not reset on it's own, it will need to be cleared...get the code and we can help

Sorry for the wait it was just a catalic converter error code so I cleared it and nothing has came back

it will come back after you drive 50-100 miles... cat codes are usually O2 sensors that need to be changed

Cat needs to be de-clogged; the car needs to be flogged more often!

FYI, the factory gas cap on my '06 IS350 started not the seal well and threw the same codes you're experiencing. I purchased a new Stant gas cap from Walmart and the codes I have yet to see re-occur since then 1+ yr ago.
