Check Engine Light - On Over 100 After 20 Minutes

Post by Paylrider »

My check engine light comes on after driving 20 minutes over 100 knm/hr or so. If I accelerate or decellerate just a bit it goes out for a while but then comes back on under steady throttle, any suggestions?

thats strange, but i might have an answere.

In my corrola the check engine light used to go on after 100 but not nessesarily after 20 minutes. The problem was the break fluid was alittle low, indicating a problem.

Now this could very well have nothing to do with your car, but it could be the issue. I'd first suggest pulling the codes. It' as easy, just check out this FAQ http://www.mx-3.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=34787
