Have the car for a couple of days and I have the CEL. I haven't gotten the code read but I'm guessing it's the same thing. Car runs fine, only have about 130km (~80miles)

Can I just disconnect the battery and step on the brake for a few minutes and have it reset?

Maybe it's the crap gas that the dealer put in before delivery?

The P1320 is a well known issue and the re-flash is due in mid-April from Mitsu to fix it. There is nothing wrong with the car it is just a software issue.

The reflash came out today, check the thread ttled, "first factory reflash," Problem solved! BTW, the problem only affected the first batch of X's. There's info in that thread that shows what vins were effected.

Anyone else had this happen? They told me a reset was all that was needed and no issues with the car. They said the factory people said it will happen rarely but could happen again. I suspect they will eventually have a software upgrade to correct.
At 989 mile the check engine light came on for me, with the same issue. They did a reflash and took care of the issue. The reflash actually made the car run a lot better.
