This is a cool site with a lot of interesting info :) Sharing and caring for your car.....hmmm, wish I could win a BMW on here or an old school Woody - ha ha.
Going to buy it today. I have a feeling the light has gone on again due to a loose gas cap, which is a pretty cheezy item on the "check engine" list in my opinion. Wonder how many visits to the dealer that has generated during which the dealer just happened to find something else wrong with the car...
Well, turns out it WAS the gas cap, which I found out AFTER I bought the dohicky at Costco. Now I need to figure out how bad I need the $80 and decide if I want to take it back for a refund - still in original package, but like usual, I can't find the receipt.
So it gave you the gascap as a possible code? Or something indecipherable?
But Costco will take it back without receipt....they have a record of when you bought it on your costco membership. Worst case they give you store credit...and there is ALWAYS something you can buy at Costco!
Well, that's good news, cause I need the refund. As for what it told me - I never used it. I just filled up my wife's car and made sure I screwed the cap on tightly and, lo and behold, the light went off. yeesh.
I tried and the email was returned as undelivered. My baby is black/tan 1989 328gts; my dream car since I was a boy. Got her two years ago, just 30k mikes. Already put over 7k on her! She loves to be driven.

Yeah, maybe. Sorry, I saw it at Costco and didn't stop to think there might actually be more than one of these types of gizmos.

Might still be useful gearhead gadget.
