Engine Light Came On Now It's Gone
Engine Light Came On Now It's Gone
Hello everyone, I'm concerned with my 2005 Xfire, I've had it for about a month and half now, purchased at 118k miles. Its been running , but lately I'm feeling as if I'm not getting enough power when I accelerate. Just recently the check engine light came on, and later in the day it had went off and hasn't returned as of yet. Im going to take it to the dealership under the powertrain warranty I purchased from them, however I want the opinion and advice from other Xfire enthusiasts. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas , or a.y questions for me, please feel free. Any help is greatly welcomed and thanks in advance.

Order two, one for the engine, one as a spare that, in about three years, you will need. Ask me why I say that, I DARE you!

Re: Engine Light Came On Now It's Gone
Your CPS is only acting up at this point, if it tripped that code and then cleared itself so the Check Engine Light went out. Where the CPS is mounted, it gets exposed to a lot of engine heat and eventually the sensor goes bad. Many times, you can sit awhile and let the engine cool off and the CPS will work again hopefully long enough for you to get back home. But when it fails, you'll be left sitting on the side of the rode. So as pizzaguy has suggested, buy two - one to install now & one to keep as a spare. Just about all of us have a spare CPS, with the required tooling, somewhere in our cars if we're traveling any major distance from home. Been There; Done That!
And we all recommend you get the Bosch version. Most of the other aftermarket versions of this sensor are not as reliable.
Later,
