Hey guys,
So I have finally hit an issue with my Grand Cherokee. I am quite scared at the moment because I don’t know how severe it is.
So this afternoon just leaving work when I started her up the engine slightly shuddered and started which gave me a bit is a scare as that’s not usual and then next second the check engine light came on. But the car was running so smooth and idled nicely. Checked in the engine bay quickly and nothing obvious was there so I carefully drove home because I didn’t that’s my tablet to check the code.
Upon coming home I checked the code and this came up. I tried to clear it but once cleared it comes back again in a few seconds. Haven’t started the car since clearing though. But the car runs so smoothly and fine. All temps normal and also no problems accelerating or idling at the moment. Subsequent starting of the engine seems to be fine too. Before clearing the codes I stopped the started the engine a few times and it felt okay. Might have to drive for a bit and see if the check engine light goes away but I doubt it. Under the code it says ‘permanent’ too. Couldn’t upload the screenshot here wouldn’t let me.
I am no mechanic so what do you think is my issue at the moment and am I in big trouble here?
Any advise would be great. Thanks guys.
