ok my check engine light came on and i checked the gas cap and yes it was on.........
the dealership wants to charge me a stupid $95 canadian to pull the code and if its covered under powertrain warr he will remburse me money heres where my dilema is... i have powertrian warranty is till Oct 25th of this year.....
and what i was thinking is to reset my ECU and my only concern is if it doesnt come back on by the friday that store the car and come back on next season when im out of warr. im screwed..... what would u guys do??

it mighty be a stupid o2 sensor.....

 

Did you retighten the gas cap after u check it. Cause I usually retighten mine once the cel goes on and it goes away after a 3 cycle drive, meaning you drive it 3 times and it should go away. Thats what I got from the owners manual.

 

ya but how many km would i have to drive???

 

k i reset ecu and its off i guess if its somehting major it iwll come back on in the next few days

 

Darren, don't you work at a Nissan dealership? If so, why not get the service guy to pull the code for you. Any OBDII system will pull the code.

i reset the ecu.... did a 35 km drive home filed up the rest of the tank (32 litres) with sunoco 94 vteced it car felt absolutly normal.....if it was something major wouldnt i feel a problem with car OR the lught would come bakc on in that drive??

 

I never reset my ecu. The 3 cycle drive is when you drive it 3 times. For example I drove my car once and parked it, I did that 3 times and after the 3rd time when I start the car the light goes off. I drove about 10-15 miles for each time since thats how far I have to drive to get to work or school. Hope this helps for future reference.

 

now im all worried.
