[quote=Anonymous][quote] buy the thing to read the codes yourself[/quote] This is what I did years ago since our family has 3 older cars. I clear the codes myself. Weather affects the sensors. If the engine hasn't warmed-up before driving (older car), that affects the sensors. Sometimes sensors fail and with an older car it doesn't seem worth the money to pay to repair the senor. One car trips a senor occasionally and the code reads, small emissions leak but has always passed the state emissions test. It wouldn't though if I drove it to the test w/the check engine light ON. They will fail it automatically for that.[/quote]
