Upon start up this morning the check engine light stayed on, this is a first for me. I guess it is time to buy a OBDII code scanner and see what codes are thrown. The car seems to run just fine. I take it that with the scanner you can clear codes and the check engine light?

 

Yes but they may come right back.

 

Yeap, some faster than others. Nevertheless, it is a good tool to have in your disposal - money well spent.

 

Oh yes, at least get a cheap OBD tool like an elm327. Very convenient.

 

ok bought a OBD2 scanner and only had one error code logged P0456. EVAP small leak
Has anyone seen this?

 

I have not fortunately but google it for lots of info.

Possible easy fix is petrol cap leak.

 

First step...check your gas cap!
