Default New 06, Check Engine Light?

Got my 06 PPW about 2 weeks ago. It has 690 miles on it. But, last night as i went to the gym, my check engine light came on? Any ideas, i know i did nothing out of the ordinary. Thanks..

I heard that sometimes the cold weather change will make the car idle higher then normal. The computer throws the CEL saying "higher idle then expected". I could be wrong tho. Also check to see if your gas cap is on.

You probably have an air bubble in your radiator hose. The problem is easily resolved just take it back to the dealer and let them take care of it.

Enjoying the PPW? I love mine. Ear to ear everytime I drive it. Sorry to hear about your Z. I'd take it in asap to get checked out.
