K so i took my 8 out for a drive today, everything was good and i was all excited to drive it and whatever, but heres my problem

after i was done driving it i brought it to a drive through car wash cuz all the wand wash car washes were paked to the nuts and i had to be somewhere right away and i didnt want road salt sitting on the frame of my car, but anyways after i got out of the wash and started my car my engine light came on, not flashing, but the solid light... i thought it would eventually go away so i thought nothing of it, until my car started bogging out at like 5000rpm

can any1 tell me what the hell is going on??? cuz im shitting my pants over this whole thing and im super worried

thanks,

Chris

 

the car is an 07, with 8000km on it

 

Go get the code checked at the Mazda dealer. Still under warranty right?

 

see thats the problem... i live an hour from the mazda dealership, and if my car is shitting the bed at low RPMs like thats driving there is gunna be brutal, but ya im for sure gunna bring it somewhere to get the code checked, and yes i have the 4 year warrenty on it

 

Buy a Scanlyser so you can read your own codes and then you can search the code on the forums. You can order it from MazdaParts

 

have it towed to the dealer..

 

^ On a flatbed trailer mind you

 

did you recently fill up?
Loose gas cap could = CEL

Are there any Autozones in your area? SOME of their readers can pull codes.
