This is about our 2003 Elantra.
we were climbing up Pike's Peak in CO in 2nd/1st gear when at about 13,000 feet where o2 levels in air is about HALF of normal level, CEL came on, car sputtered and won't go. We let it sit for a while, to cool off, and drove back down, and still CEL was on, but car now drives fine. went to autozone, got CEL cleared (only code was P1166); never came back on...yet.
I know that P1166 is related to O2 sensor (bank1) etc, and that it probably freaked out..that's what I think.
the car is still under warranty. should I worry about this? (even if the CEL never came back)? As I said the car drives completely normal now.
This is what I could find about this code:
P1166 O2s (B1) Control Adaptation
P1166 Limit O2s Lambda Control (B1)
btw, more photos from today coming later tonight.
