Again: OBD-II cars (in general), you need to buy a $20 code scanner so you can figure out what is wrong. If it tells you no codes, you need to reset it so that the problem can be duplicated. This way, you can provide the dealer with additional information so they can help you.

It's like high blood pressure. Maybe it's horrible in the clinic when you go for a checkup, but you are fine on an almost daily basis when you test at home. The more info you document, the better off you are when it comes to solving your problem... and step one starts with a reader to diagnose your code.

Old cars would have you turn a knob or screw on the ECU to spit out codes. New cars give you a simple way to read it and clear it instantly.

Whats wrong with spraying a maf sensor with specifically formulated maf sensor cleaner?

Why is a 20$ obd scanner better than the dealers 1200$ one?

The dealers obd couldnt even read my ecu. BUT two days ago the updated my ecu!????

HOW. Did the updTe ecu yet couldnt run codes? Id say the screwed up the obd prongs
