Then why did you start the thread. Honestly, we want to help but you telling us that you got an SES light could mean anything from, misfire to a knock sensor. No codes, no symptoms = no help from us. And to be frank everyone here on the org has probably gotten an SES light at one point or another, so welcome to the world of a money pit.

Get in your car, go to an auto parts store, get your codes checked FOR FREE, come back here, go through the "what your codes mean" thread, come back here post it and we will help

im thinking something, please tell me what it is

there are thousands of things that can cause an SES..should we just pick one?

get the code read, and tell us what it is.

EDIT: money clearly isnt an issue since you wasted money on nissan doing a 50K "tune up". just take it back to the dealership.

ya but doing the 50K mile tune up is pretty damn expensive .. and somewhat wasteful .. which is sooners point that if you can pay for that .. you might as well just go to the dealer and get this fixed.

maybe your gas cap wasn't tighten properly?


we need to make a SES light template for people to fill out and submit in the noob thread.

I am SURE his ses light came on so he would jump online to the org to see the picture on Sooner's reply... that's got to be it

go to autozone, get the codes ran for free, then come back and tell what the codes were.. 2 more things:

A. don't talk about people poor brain capacity when you can barely write yourself

B. insults probably aren't your best way to get help from us
