Hi, I have an 04 WRX, have been running it for about 6 months now with no issues what so ever but the other day i went and started it and the EML came on, i stopped, checked evrything and it all seemed fine, oil, water, idled fine, no smoke, smell or ugly sounds.
i disconnected the battery for half an hour but that didnt clear it so i left it for the rest of the wkend with the plan to take it to get a diagnostic run on it and get the fault codes.
went and started it just to take it to the garage and on first start there was a fairly rich smell of petrol but that stopped strait away and the EML went out?
does anyone have an idea of what this could be? should i still get the diagnostic done on it, or could it be nothing?
i have been using tesco momentum in it and over the weekend put about half a tank of v-power through it so dont know if that could have anything to do with it? (both 99 ron but it was mapped on momentum)
