shifting check engine light problem
so in the past couple days my car has been flashing teh check engine light when i shift at high rpms
today i tested teh problem i waited until between 7 and 8 to shift to 2nd and 3rd then the light came on.
it wouldn't go away though
i turned off the car and turned it back on and it was still there
i wasn't redlining it. is this normal?

If you added a full qt. or more to bring the level to the top mark, you should check it frequently in the future to see if it is really using that much or perhaps it was not filled to the top mark the last time oil was changed.

yeah my Check engine was flashing alot when i went down to the malibu canyon run last month. But about 3-4 weeks later, I was doing donuts and the CEL was on Solid its bin about a week and it's still not going away? Is this going to be stored now to the ECU.
is my warrenty still safe?

^ I'm thinking it might be my Intake. I'm probably going to put back my stock intake on, take it to the dealer i guess?
Also When i go to the canyons and im at high rpms, the CEL light will start to flash on & off , goes away for like 6-7 secs then comes back on either flashing or stays on.
BTW, Whats a DTC code?
