The check engine light pops on and i head to autozone and i get the following two codes: P1447, p1706. They guy said one of them says "high speed observed in park" which is wierd cause i have a 5spd. The other one says something like flow problem. I never had these codes before and even the guy there says those are some strange codes for the car to give.

The car runs fine, the only thing i remember that was different was i got the car rust proofed about 10 hrs before the light came on. Any ideas or suggestions on what to do????????

 

clear the codes see if they come back...
the flow might be egr related....

 

Sounds like a citation rather than a code.

Check the codes on your own, and use the decoder to see for yourself what it comes back to.

 

what yr is your max?

 

i got the code cleared and it showed up again. Its a 1998 maxima, GXE. the other flow one i was talking about is acutally: EVAP control system/Flow. Is this worth investigating or should i just keep driving?????

This is a "jackpot" code. It points to so many possible causes as to be almost useless. It may be accompanied by another DTC which is more specific.

THis is your first code,


This is your 2nd code

I had a problem with my ford lightning with the IAC, All I did was cleaned it out with some carb cleaner and works good now. How is your idle on your maxima?

 

Thanks for the help guys, grandmastr im going to try to get those things checked out. Oh.. my idle is fine, i notice absolutely no difference in the car.

Is this something i should do right away, or can this wait?????

 

that depends on what it turns out to be.

 

doesn't really look that serious, if the car rides fine, I wouldn't worry too much

 

thanks guys, i'll probably wait until i get some time to take it to the mechanic to get it checked out. Appreciate the helps boyz
