C32 fails to fire
Hi guys
This am, tried to start my car, there is the cranking and starter going on but the engine fails to fire and start. Then I tried it about 3 times and finally it worked but the check engine light came on.
Any ideas?
Lately I have been getting mesages saying check engine oil and when I do the check it just says "perf service on time."
are these related?
Thanks

Yup, that's what happened to mine a few weeks ago at 75k miles. And as a word of caution, it may eventually start, but it won't run for very long so don't try to drive it. Mine ended up dying at a busy intersection! Not good, by any definition.
