Do you hae any idea what these codes are indicate. On my road trip I had these codes come on and I wasn't sure what they were, especially with no tuner yet. So I took it to a dealership and they put it on the computer and told me that I had restriction on the fuel. They suggested a fuel filter change. I will never let the dealership change another fuel filter that is for sure. $34.95 for the filter and $96 labor for a 30 minute job.

They did tell me that the fuel filter was pulling 6 inches vacuum instead of the 9 that is needed. I was 600 miles from home so I just went with it because i noticed that my mileage went from about 20 to between 15 and 18 before the filter. I haven't filled up to calculate the mileage after filter change.
