Well crud, my engine warning light went on again. Since this happened so soon after the last shop visit, I figured that it must be the result of my parent’s recent drive to Fresno and back. What had gotten into the engine that would cause such a warning? Bugs? Sand? Maybe the air filter needed to be replaced. The thing is, the car was running just fine upon their return.
I got the car in to Gunter at the dealership. I was beginning to get very familiar with this place, and with Gunter. Within an hour, it was determined that I needed an O2 sensor replaced. Nothing was wrong with the car, and this was a warranted item so the visit was free! The thing is, they didn’t have an 02 sensor in stock, so I would have to come back another day.
Gunter knew that I had hoped for a loaner Porsche last time I was here, so he said he’d put me first on the list to get a Panmera as a loaner car should I want to leave my car overnight (no 911 rentals, shoot!, only Panmeras and Cayannes). Nice offer, but I decided to come back in a few days.
