Funny thing. I was at my local Mazda dealership this morning negotiating a new lease on a Mazda 3, as my 2003 Protege lease comes due in 38 days. I have the 150 hp engine in it (2.0 liter i believe?).
I signed the lease and as i left the dealership i noticed my 'check engine' light was on. Not flashing.
This is very curious as it was not on when i drove into the dealership. The manager had inspected my car while i was inside reading some paperwork.
The car runs absolutely fine and it is a clear day, about 20 degrees C (79 farenheit) but the light is on.
So, i'm wondering if the manager did something to my car while he was inspecting it, although i'm not sure why he would. If not, what could the possible problems be and can i (hopefully) ignore it as i am about to get a new car in 5 weeks i don't want to fork out any money on this one.
Any and all help appreciated. I live in Toronto, Canada, if that makes any difference.
