This happened to me, too. The CEL light is on, the engine barely idles, and the engine only makes low boost - hardly any power. This was maybe at 60,000 miles.
First they reprogrammed the DI cassette. That was ~$175.
Then a few months later it happened again and this time they replaced the throttle body. I don't remember how much it cost.
One other time the CEL light came on but the power was just fine. They replaced the DI cassette at 55,000 miles and called it close-enough-to-warranty that they only charged me $100.
The light is on again at 67,000 miles with full power. This time I'm not in any hurry to get it fixed. It must be some tiny emission problem. It should be fixed under the warranty on one of the two previous repairs.
