engine light
engine light
so i got on my car through second and third when all of a sudden my engine light started blinking at me thought to myself damn it whats this all about just got the car a week ago and its already yelling at me but after i drove it in lower rpm's the light turned off any ideas ?
when i got home i put it in the garage and popped the hood because recently my low coolant light was turning on at start up for a couple of seconds after it should have turned off so i checked the oil for the hell of it too and my oil is chocolate milk so i guess i found out where my coolants going could this also be the reason for my engine light ?
so looks like im going to the dealer for a reman engine

You are probably getting condensation on the dipstick. Known issue.
The coolant sensors are also pretty sketchy. Add a couple oz if it makes you feel better.
Your flashing light was probably a random misfire and no big deal.

yeah in PA it's that time where it's gettin cold etc (used to live in PA i know what it's like) so you will get some water in the oil becasue on condensation in the oil pan from the heat of the oil and it being so cold outside makes condensatioin....just check it a few times to get right of alot on the dipstick till you can read it....once summer/spring hits all that will b gone and won't have to worry about it...
However go to autozone to read the code for free and make sure it was a misfire....
