I was actually pretty happy with the TL, but it hasn't been really driven for a while. So yesterday i drive the TL instead of the sti because i thought it was going to rain andddddd it didnt. But thats neither here nor there. I was on my way to work, and it was kinda cold outside today when i started it and it seemed to be driving fine, and everything was fine, except at how slow my heat works!
I'm driving and i pull up to a light on the street, and my check engine light starts flashing, and my Traction control system light goes on. I'm like wtf? So i pull over at stop and shop, and shut my car. After i turn it back on, my oil pressure light blinks rapidly for like 2 seconds, and the maintenence required and TCS and Check engine. But then the check engine light stayed on. After about 5 feet of driving, the TCS went off.
Now what the hell is wrong with the acura. Honestly, so much shit has had to be replaced. Ignition coils, EGR, injectors and other shit.
Perhaps this will help in diagnosing the problem,
Yesterday i noticed an exhaust leak. Could that be why the car is throwing check engine lights?
Car details = 2001
just broke 106,000

All we would be doing is guessing. Get the codes read at a auto parts store and we can help better from there.
it was like PO71 or something like that. Running too lean. My mechanic said that all the other lights were just a weird trip through out the electrical system. But running too lean, how do i fix that...............
