'Service A due' message and 'check engine' light are entirely separate things.

For check engine light, take the car to any auto parts store; most of the parts stores read the diagnostic codes for free. Otherwise, just buy the diagnostic code reader and read the codes and tell us what those codes are. We can go from there.

Wow, spelling is kind of rough but the service A thing just means you should get it serviced (oil change, filter etc).. For the Check engine light scan it and google or search the code on the forum and see what it means.

bring your car into an indy mb shop and have them do your service A if your not capable of doing it yourself. And while it's there have them check your OBD codes or bring it to an autoparts store and have them check your OBD codes.
