2003 GMC Envoy Why would your check engine light come on after starting on a VERY cold day I tried starting it a few times to no luck after it warmed up a bit it started but the engine light is on?

Drive it for a few days and log some miles on it and the check engine light may go out. Mine used to set a check engine light on really hot days here in the desert. I was told then engine and the computer have to go thru x amoutn of cycles and if the problem doesn't show up during those cycles, the check engine light will turn off. Enevtually the light came on to stay and my problem turned out to be a weak fuel pump.

Check engine light on 2001 s500?

I just bought a 2001 s500. The person I bought it from told me that if I let the gas get too low or did not tighten the gas cap properly, the "check engine" light would come on. Well, about two weeks after I purchased the vehicle I let the gas get a little low and sure enough the "check engine" light came on. I filled it up with gas and the "check engine" light stayed on. I got worried. Finally after two days of being on it just went out by itself. Has not come back on since.


Why does my 1996 Sunfire heater deliver cold air on cold days?

Check your temperature gauge. If it shows the engine is running in the normal range then there could be a problem with the "air door" that controls how much air is brought in through the heater core. Or the core itself is plugged and needs to be flushed out. If the guage shows the engine is running cold , then you should have the thermostat replaced.

Why after replacing the gas cap my check engine light came on again after a couple of days OBD said gas gap again how can I fix this?

The gas cap message can come up on the dash when there is a large vapor leak from the fuel tank. You need to check all of the vacuum lines going from the engine to the tank.
