CEL Lovin

Welps, on my way back to work from a run to town, pay bills, etc, my CEL came on....

So I check some stuff out, I was low on oil, im about 2k over due to not enough extra cash to flush her out, I run to the store and pick up a cpl quarts, added one, let it sit for bout half hour then checked the dipstick. It was 3/4 of the way to the 2nd hole on the dipstick, so I added bout 1/2 of the second quart, started her and let her idle for the length of a cig, then sit till my next cig break, checked the oil again, did same, idle for cig.

Car seems to be running fine, but my main question is, do I gotta go to the dealership to clear the CEL out? its hella ugly light and im pretty sure the only rsn it came on was cause of the amount of oil in the car.

Thanks guys,

-Mayo

Disconnect the negative terminal on the battery for 10-15 min. it'll clear the ECU and that CEL

Ah thanks guys, was wondering what would be the easiest way, cause the light hasnt gone off yet. Im noticing that certain times, around 3000 RPM"s or so in any gear, I can feel a slight hiccup and not quite sure what it is..was gonna get her scanned today but im too broke to do it up...

ur car is obd2 so you will need to have it scanned to find out y the light is on then have it cleared and when was the last time you did a tune up?
