ok so, i jsut got my evo earlier this week.. i have been verrrryyy careful with it.. getting used to it in all..

well today i overestimated my car, or underestimated myself driving.. idk. but i decided to take my first quick turn... oops.

being a stock evo, i forget how fast im going. i took a curve by my house going about 60. the car spun out. i got control of it after the tail end of the car going off the road. but i over corrected and spun out to the other side. so im sitting in the ditch.
the car had died. im not sure if i stalled it or not i dont remember.
but now the service engine soon light is on, and im scared ****less

HELP!!!!!!

 

Just pull the code and reset it if you dont have a scanner just pull the negative terminal off the batt. It likely got triped when the car stalled probably upset the MAF signal quite a bit.


No worries try to keep it on the road.

 

if you don't have a scanner tool. take it to Schucks or AutoZone and they can read/reset the code for you.

 

wow sucks......go get scanned..

 

i tried that, ran the car around my neighborhood for like 10 min, now no light. thanks!

oh, and when i looked under the car just now, to see if anything was leaking, i noticed my tires are almost BALD.. probly why i skidded out

 

^that's a major problem... replace your tires asap... glad you're safe, be careful...

 

works everytime.. lol.

 

Get some new tires.
