Rooster2 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Have the code pulled again. You should get a much better description of the problem. Ask for the code read number. Post it here, if the description given to you is not any better. Codes don't advise routine maintenance like tune up and oil changes. Most codes are advising problems with pollution control.

golucky66 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 I'm not sure about Subaru's but some other cars have a "Service Engine Soon" light which is commonly mistaken for a check engine light. The service engine soon light is typically the light for oil changes etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
