So two weeks ago I added a full tank of Shell premium fuel. Upon starting my car the engine light was on. I did not feel any difference for the two day drive which was short distance on local way. I used CAN OBDII to check it, and it read the code P2181 which is cooling system performance code...

Hey guys! I was wondering if any of you guys know about any european car shows that happen on a yearly basis in canada. The only one i know of so far is vagkraft. I would prefer ones in alberta/bc, but i know that compared to ontario, nothing ever happens here in alberta. And it would be great...

What would cause idle trim to climb quickly - indicating vac leak....but go back down when A/C is on? Is there a vac line that is closed off when the A/C is engaged? Any ideas are appreciated!

Say I Drive the car 10 mins from cold start. The coolant needle goes up normally. I turn the car off for 5 mins and the needle says cool. The oil hasnt even Cooled yet! Now the needle does go back up in 1-2mins. Much quicker than from actual cold engine, but why is it taking so Long to...
