My 2004 c320 W203 check engine light lights up yesterday while driving, the road was very slushy, temp was minus 2c. Would the check engine light on caused by excessive water and wet slushy snow on the road, no driveability problem, no misfiring and idle smooth. Anyone knows what caused my check engine light to come on (and stay on). Also, would the check engine light goes off by itself?
Thanks

yes it's possible that the slushy conditions on the road caused the light to come on by getting a sensor wet and shorting out the connection.
have the code read and get back to the forum, i'm sure you will find an answer here.
