All to no avail, it was the tank sensor the hardest and last one to check. His reader could not lift detail codes on the evap system so he systematically replaced all sensors. Some four years ago I went through a round of check engine light and had an independent work on it.
Again, I would have had to reprogram the ECU as well as order it so it was the dealers job.
I had the dealer put a refurbished ECU as the OEM is obsolete. Late last fall had an issue, seems a port on the ECU went open. I do not climb under cars anymore so I had no problem with the cost. Seems the cat was wore out, nearly $900 for the job. I was going to read the codes two weeks ago but decided not to and took the car in. The mini cd with the software is for windows.
However, I'm getting the correct mpg for the car as is.īoth ECU port adapters came from ebay, cheap and fast. The laptop has a 12volt adapter, so I could drive and tweek. I bought a second one that is bluetooth but I have to reload xp and turn on the blue tooth adapter, a later project. If I subscribe to the advanced software I can read and change anything. I found some Linux based software to support it for free. I got a Chinese one that runs on the USB port.
