Question Check engine flashing

Hi everybody

This after noon I driving on the hightway at ~160km/h for about 25 minutes and my check engine light flashing during 1 minutes . After that I reduce my speed to 110 Km/h for all the way. Nothing happen after that. The sound of the engine did not change and I earing nothing of abnormal.

My question is: Somebody here already had this problem?

Thanks

A flashing CEL indicates a transient event such as a misfire. I saw this happen on my car once or twice. The dealer may or may not be able to pull a code but probably can't do much until the CEL is on steady (if that happens)
