I've had a Check Engine Light bugging me for quite a while now. I have found that it stays on if I am doing shorter trips, like my 20 minute drive to work. But if I drive for about an hour continuously the CEL will go out.
Today I decided to replace the cracked passenger exhaust manifold, and while I was at the parts store I had the codes read.
This is what I got, and I have found some of them, but am lost on the others;
P1033
P0401 (EGR Insufficient flow detected)
P0000
P00C0
P0220 (TPS Malfunction)
P0801 (Reverse Inhibit Control Malfunction)
I don't know a whole lot of history on the vehicle, but it does have 145,000 miles. I bought it over the summer and have been working on getting it into shape as a Winter vehicle. It has been doing quite well, and I have not noticed any real driveability problems, but I wanted to get the CEL shut off.
After clearing the codes the CEL was out for the 45 minute drive home. But after swapping the manifold and going for a 5 minute test drive it came back on.
I'm guessing the EGR may be partially plugged, and causing the light, but any ideas on the other codes above? Especially the P00C0, I have not seen a letter in a code before...
