My check engine light was on before this and a ...

P0132 and P0138, both pertaining to O2 sensor high voltages. This came on while wheeling, ran like crap after. Any ideas? my rear O2 sensor is only a few months old...what else can cause a high voltage reading on an O2?

Check Engine Light Changed my battery on my '03 WRX PPP about a week ago. Noticed a day or two after that the 'low fuel' light came on intermittently even with a full tank. Then, yesterday the Check Engine Light has come on. I reset the ECU this morning and took it for a spin and the light stayed off. Took ...

I have a 1995 Riviera Supercharged that is running bad. It's sputtering, kinda feeling like its missing, only when the check engine light is on. The check engine light started coming on about 2 weeks ago, at first it wasn't on all the time but now it pretty much stays on. When the check engine light is off it runs okay. I'm pretty broke right now, I can't really afford to take it into the shop, I...

Ok, so the check engine light is burning brightly on the dashboard of my 2000 A6 2.7t. The codes that it is throwing are 1136 and 1138 which according to the Bentley manual are for the left and right bank running too lean (air and fuel mixture is not correct or out of spec). From research I have done this can either be cause by the MAF reading incorrectly or a vacuum leak on...

I have a 2001 Toyota Prius. I am over 100k and the warranty has expired. Today as I was driving home, the check engine (Malfunction Indicator Light) light came on. The car still drives fine. I am taking it to a mechanic in the morning but I was wondering if there is some malfunction that is common among first generation priuses.
