Hi all
I am a new 6G owner ,Just got a 98 SSIII with Beams engine,but alas the engine light is coming on.It seems to come on when I start to hit high(ish) speeds eg.80 kmph.I have brought it in to have a dignostic run on it but they could'nt find a problem,its a japanese import and the importer tells me that the timing belt was done 10k kms ago.Has anyone out there had this problem before as I would like to know this can be sorted before I make any changes to the car. -------------------- Rome wasn't built in a day...[color=#3333FF]

I am experiencing something similar right now. However my problem started after I ran into a problem on the Freeway and the car backfired. I was told that since the CEL goes back out after I run at slower speeds for a while, that it most likely the O2 sensor. I was told that the backfiring might have messed up the sensor. I will see this weekend. I have an extra sensor and will replace it.
