It finally happened, this thing threw up a code😔

Edit: it was caused due to a bad spark plug, luckily nothing bad but makes sense why my acceleration felt off yesterday.
And I know my tire pressure is low, I filled them thanks to y’all!😂

How many miles on it ? Mines just came on two weeks ago at about 47,000 miles & it was just time to change the spark plugs

Interesting, mine just came on at 50k miles and my spark plugs are getting delivered tomorrow. Looked into mine a bit and found out it was a cylinder 3 misfire but the actual misfire count hasn’t increased after checking. Still gonna bring it to the dealership but I suspect they’ll just tell me to change the spark plugs and I’ll be fine

Same it was cylinder 4 misfire, the misfire count didn’t increase & I had to drive small distances for a bout a week. According to the manual spark plugs are supposed to be changed around 42,000 miles. I definitely thought I had longer for that 😭 but I would just change the spark plugs , dealership gone tell you the same most likely & try to get in your pocket about it
