Wtf check engine light

On my way out to dinner with the family my check engine light pops on with no error message in the service setting. Anybody else with this issue? Also my driver side seat belt get stuck from time to time.
Any newyork locals recommend any good service dealers

just have the dealer or someone else scan the code and let us know what it is for. make sure your gas cap is tight because a loose one can cause that light to pop on in-and-of itself

If you haven't already gone to the dealer wait awhile. Things like error codes for a loose gas cap sometimes take several engine cycles to clear.

They also take a few cycles before they activate the warning light but are pending in the computer, kind of similar to the pending charges on your credit card.

Some error codes are more immediate if they portend immediate possible engine damage.

Got a called from the dealership, and my engine check light is due to the thermostat. The parts is back order in the U.S. and they have to get one from Germany.

Not at all, the thermostat is still working but the computer is throwing out the error code. They are going to change it just to be safe.

This doesn't make any sense. The computer threw a code because a reading presumably the water temperature was out of design limits. Either the temp sensor or the thermostat or some other system which impacts coolant temperature is not functioning correctly or the monitoring / diagnostic system is faulty

Thermostat is pretty much what I got from the conversation with the adviser. He didn't go into detail on how they got to that conclusion.

Jus got the car back had a misfire in cylinder 1 and 6. Also got a software update I like that we now have a Eco mode on the navi to find the most fuel Efficient route and the boost mode in the sound system
