    Now what have I done?

    I decided to put a lightweight battery in my '08 to replace the heavyweight stocker. About a 12 lb savings. I followed instructions in the service manual ['03] as I don't have an '08 manual. Now the car runs fine but the check engine light is on even after driving it twice. Any thoughts...
