Annoying and mystical CELs Posted by MI-Roger [Email] (#882) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MI-Roger) on Thu, 22 Sep 2011 17:16:59 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Twice in the past week I have received a CEL upon starting my car while it is still hot from recent drives. Both times there has been no ill affect on the vehicle's operation, both times the CEL disappears with the next cool/cold start sequence, and I have not yet been able to catch it on my code reader.
My guess is something with vapor recovery, or a IDM/DIC that is beginning to fail. The current IDM/DIC was installed was part of the recall 120,000 miles ago, and with over 309,000 miles on the odometer there is lots of opportunity for someting weird or unusual to be causing the CEL.
I know I will be able to catch it eventually (I'll start carrying my code Reader with me again) but does anyone want to take a guess? I'll let you know what is eventually displayed.
