As posted a few weeks ago, I posted about the throttle body issue. It turned out to be a 2119 code, with no other issues besides a slightly rough idle at times.
After about 15 "cycles", the light went away, and the Balt was happy again. But on the way home, the CEL popped on again, and it went to slightly rough again. Difference is, it was really cold today, and tonight. Makes me wonder if it will do it again..
I know it's been a hard winter, the kind that breaks stuff. So it makes me wonder, if I have something going (doesn't seem like it) wrong, or it is starting to feel the same way I do about winter!
One of my thoughts is that since the spark plugs are original (about 8 years old) the cold is killing them off at a quick rate. Beyond that, nothing comes to mind, since the car has never thrown codes before. And I'm willing to bet the code it's throwing is the same 2119 code too (might get it checked out again..) Keep in mind (though there is a slight loss of power acceleration, but thinking more winter related here ) there are no other issues with the car
Has anyone else seen real nagging issues this winter in their cars? Thoughts on mine?
(hoping to nip this in the bud before it goes in for the "recall" work at the dealership)
