Question

Help answer this question below.

I have a '06 Civic EX auto sedan. "Check engine light" keeps going ON. Brought to the dealership twice already and it came on for the 3rd time. They said it's a solenoid problem?? Engine makes a Growling sound and "skips" when driving. Anyone know?

    If you can, take it to another dealership.

    The "Check Engine" light (or MIL in technician-speak) indicates that fault codes have been set in the engine computer, and those fault codes *should* lead the technicians to a proper diagnosis.

    The "growling" noise should also be a dead giveaway if it is in fact related to the emissions control problem.

    These things are difficult to diagnose over the Internet, but you have enough symptoms that a decent technician should be able to find the cause.

    Good luck.

    • Would like to add that any problems should be under warranty, and the dealership should fix the problem immediately if they are able to know what it is.
