There are at least 1,000 reason that could turn on a CEL. That is why a visit to an autoparts store near you to borrow a scanner is so important.

It could be something related to emmisions, which is why your car still runs 'good'. But, somewhere, the engine is running at default mode because it is getting bad data. This must be addressed and repaired.

So, find out what the codes are. Be sure and write them down in case there are more than one.

Leaking air could be the idle control or the cold air pump, for starters.
