service engine soon/reduced power ses
in the last couple weeks ive had the reduced power ses come on under different instances. mostly under heavy throttle driving. restarting the car clears it and i dont see it again for a while. im not sure on how to check the codes and when i start the car i get a service engine soon message.
could this be causing it? whats required to service the engine to clear this out? i was going to change the plugs,oil and filter but since i cant get any one my current code readers to work im stuck. |

took her in today. ended up being the vanos solnoids. since i fell under the service plan,they changed the plugs,oil,wipers,replaced a worn interior piece and gave her a total wash and rub down. didnt cost me a dime.
