  1. Hey djspawn00, Thanx a lot for the tip. I have done wat u said and put in premium gas and had the Check engine light reset. So far it didn't come on yet. BTW, the driving was done while the gear was in 4 not in D so mayb that could've shut it off. Really appreciate it bro, I just hope the Cat is not messed up as the dealer told me earlier $2200+ to fix it. I wish there were a parts store if I really needed it in case. Thanx, Zia
  2. Hey guys, the mechanic said the sensor is p0420. Also, this is strange, while driving back, the car stoped running, it was starting then turns off. Gas still 1/4 left. I called a toe truck & took it back to the mechanic again after around 45 min but this situation didn't happen again in his shop. Did my engine get too hot or something. Please any word on the 2 topics would be very helpful. Thanx
  3. Hey Guys, thank you so much for the help. I will post the codes as soon as I go back and get them. Thanx
  4. Hey guys, I was in the middle of the country when my 99 GS300 ran out of fuel. Then had it taken to the closest station and put 89 octane gas. Ran fine for the whole tank and then filled up with another tank of 89. After driving about 40 miles the Check Engine Light came on. Took it to the dealer, paid 140+ and was told have to change the Catalytic converter AND sesors for $2200+. Took it to Midas they checked it and said I have bad fuel type in it and should put Premium first and try it out plus he said my car has 2 sensors and he is seeing them "moving". So my question is do you know who I can believe??? And also how do I reset the Check Engine light?(I don't have original keys) This is truly a tricky question, Thanx, Zia
