Default CEL P229E

I had a CEL thrown this morning and immediately went to the dealer, but i was not treated right (Dealer says he is busy, and cannot take me in, he does not have the manpower to look the car up( how long does it take to scan it 2 MIN?)

Very Bad by the dealer, i know I did not have an appointment but was there first at before 9 am at which they open and try to explain the situation.

Anyways I took it to another indy shop and they performed a scan, The code that was thrown was P229E which has something to do with the NOX sensor. I have read some people just re flashed their ecu with the latest software and the error went away. Did anybody experience same code, or had issues with the NOX sensor?

I'm assuming you had the fix done recently? If so this is pretty common....and a new sensor will be covered.
