So to owners who have experienced a CEL on low mileage, what is typically the cause? I've tried the gas cap already and don't have the time at the moment to get it checked out yet.

Thanks for reading!
First off it takes a brave man to drive around for weeks with a CEL and not know what it is for!

Get the code read. There are at least 1,000 things that it could be ranging from a loose gas cap to you are about to blow the engine up or lose your steering suddenly. Guessing at what it could be is just pissing into the wind.
