CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON...

[cliffdunedin]

Yesterday after 3 months i took my WRX for a run i got about 5 kms before feeling a kind of light shuddering(like tyres going down or gone down) so i pulled over check them and no they were fine carried on a bit, then the Check engine light came on...so straight back home i go...pop the hood and its running very hot(even though the temp guage was normal mid way!!

Started it this morning and ran it for about 10 mins...everything seemed fine...no check engine etc...

any ideas guys...maybe just blowing the cobwebs from sitting for a couple of months :-\

[dubbedup]

use the power of the check light to tell whats going on... something mite be faulty

I'm sure the check light wouldn't come on for no reason.

Could be anything, random guesses like this lead people to spend money that wasnt needed to spend

Diag check and go from there
