Description of the problem | I have owned my car for a little over 3 years now. I started having problems with my fob not unlocking my car. I would had to press the unlock button several times to unlock. Then i also started having problems with not being able to turn on my car(with the push start) because the brake pedal was really stiff. I had to press hard on the brake in order to successfully turn on my car. Recently i've had a check engine light come on sporadically. Sometimes the light comes on and off while during my drives in the city. Two days ago, i attempted to turn on my car and the car began to start, but continued to make the ignition start sound for several seconds--about 10 seconds-- than usual. This was of course not the norm, so i pressed the start up button to turn off the car. When i attempted to turn on again, it turned on fine with the check engine light on again. I went to pep boys and meneike to check this out and they said that i had a p2096 problem. This code was followed with the description as follows: post catalyst fuel trim system too lean bank 1. Essentially i was told that the ratio of oxygen and fuel , the engine take is off. They thought it was a leak that would cause the lack of fuel going into the engine, but when they investigated it, they didn't find a leak. As of now, i don't have a real diagnosis for my car. I'm not sure if all of these problems correlate or have a domino effect on each other, but the issue will take a while to take care of. |
