My 9-5 has had this problem for about 15,000 miles. Had it checked out at 90,000 miles check up. TechII said it was catalytic converter or problem with gasoline being used. I have been tightening the gas cap like crazy before this. Since the light goes out periodically and stays off for some time it isn't the catalytic converter. The problem was worse while on my jaunt through the Northeast in July, August and September. Once I got back to Florida I got back to using Chevron regularly as well as staying in Sport mode. The light has been out for nearly three weeks now. Don't know if the Sport mode plays into it but when I pull my trailer I keep it off because the auto tranny shifts down too often. Food for thought.
