And we have had TWO cars with that fussy "check engine" light thing too....what a bother. They should just not have those sensors in any of the cars.

Glad to hear you won the clog battle. <br />Kinda mysterious how your vehicle suddenly starts working correctly after you go to a second mechanic.

Bet it looks like the Kybo monster my kids said lived in the portable outhouse. <br /><br />As for the car fixing itself. I believe machines have personalities. Perhaps your vehicle didn't like the oil change guy; like kids that don't like some doctors. The new oil change guy must have known how to push the right buttons to make that auto happy.Leeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655189620056032790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-75705778639809087472011-03-05T12:57:03.124-06:002011-03-05T12:57:03.124-06:00That was hooray for Far Guy!
