Has anyone had this problem before?
Car seems to be running just fine, aside from the annoying engine light. Any suggestion as to what this may be caused from?

Thanks in Advance.

If you're refering to your "Service Engine Soon" light, try this, it worked for me:

Just as an FYI on some newer models the Conforti CAI may trigger the SES light don't bring it to the dealer they'll blame the intake and charge you to reset. I spoke to Josh when I had that issue come up after 1wk of installing the intake, just disconnect the battery 20min or so let the computer clear it's adaptive tables and it will set itself back up in learning modem and adjust to the increased airflow. 4mth later no problems.

Good Luck

one more thing, already checked the gas cap... if only that were the case.
