Check Engine Ligh came on this morning......
So warmed up the car for about 5 min before I left for work and about 2 miles into my drive the check engine light came on. I pulled over shut the car down and restarted it... light still on. The car seemed to be performing well and there were no odd noises.
So I called a friend of mine who works for VW/Audi electronics division and he said that it should be fine so long as the light does not start flashing. He also said he can check the codes but not until next Wednesday.
My questions then are:
-Should I just wait until Wednesday to get the code checked and cleared and continue driving?
-Can I go to pep boys or AutoZone and have them check what "P" code is coming up? (my buddie told me I could do this)
Details: 225 QR with 84k miles. Timing belt and water pump were replaced at 75k. Small oil leak but oil level was fine when I checked. temp outside this morning was 60F
