2008 problem...

[Rick530]

drove the car about 3 miles, parked had lunch. Came out and now the check engine light is on. Have an appointment for tuesday for exhaust change, guess they'll have something else to figure out aswell. Car runs normal. Any way of finding out what code is gettin tossed up??

Go to an AutoZone...they will read it for free.

thanks i'll give it a try

 

[Rick530]

oh, where the hell do they plug it into on the car?

 

[Jeff Monheim]

Plugs in under the dash drivers side very easy access!

Assuming the computer is the same as an '06 you can get the code without Autozone. Turn the ignition on then off three times slowly and the code will appear on the odometer readout. A simple search on here will then tell you what the code means.

I have an SCT programmer, but it may not work on an '08.

The code will still be in the memory. I would still do a read and see what code it pulls up and make sure it was really the pressurized gas tank code.
