Service engine light blinking I30T

So these past two weeks i been leaking transmission oil because i just found out my tranmission oil pan had a crack in it so i finally bough one, but while it was leaking i added oil so it won't run out. My service engine light has been on since i got the car, "3months ago" the guy i bough it from told me the light was nothing serious that it was a sensor, and after i bought the car it ran good, real good. Now when i come to a stop sign or red light and press down on the brakes the car starts shaking in the front only, so i know i have to get Roters..... so my question is, do you think the blinking light has anything to do with any of those 2 problems i got, and what would happen driving on a blinking light, it only starts blinking when i hit over 75MPH.

Get your codes checked.

BLINKING check engine light is usually severe misfire.

You just believed the guy when u bought the car about the check engine light?

You should have checked what code the light was throwing immediately. Never trust somebody else judgment. Go get the code checked at your nearest parts store and come back with what they say.

when i bought the car it was the same way engine light took it to the mechanic typical sensor crap and some solenoid which i havent figured out what it is today and nothing else bought it and still works fine 5 months ahead

now in your case a blinking service engine light is a big problem might be a misfire or something terribly bad happening to your car

Blinking light most likely misfire, so change all ignition coils. Usually engine light starts blinking on high acceleration.

as the others said a blinking CEL means you have a misfire................

FWIW, but OEM coilpack(s) not autoparts store coilpacks. Non-OEM coils will throw a P1320 CEL code
