[bimdo]

has anyone had this? a couple days ago i had the reduced power warning (yellow motor icon with diagonal slash) ,which then went away next time i started it. today the service engine warning came on,when i went to check control it called up the yellow engine outline.just wanted to see what this was,i haven't plugged in a code reader yet.

IMO you'll never know until the code is pulled; otherwise it's like predicting the future.

i don't have a code reader,i'll take it by the dealer tomorrow or friday

Have the codes read... Had this happen about a month ago... After several visits to the dealer, they seemed to have fixed the problem.

i got the code,and it's a 2722, fuel pressure sensor,with a secondary o2 sensor fault behind.it the mechanic said the o2 sensor fault would probably clear out once the fuel pressure sensor was replaced.

That's what I was going to ask...it's a standard port read the code off our cars right?

Yup. Obd2

a new fuel pressure sensor seems to have fixed the problem,and i'm noticing better driveability,including a bit less bucking when cold.
