My check engine light comes on from time to time, stays on for like a day or so then goes off and comes back a few days later. I had the dealer run the codes on it twice but both times the light was off by then and they found nothing. They say there are no TSBs out about this issue and they said just to run it in the next time it comes on before it goes off. Anyone else having this problem? My only mods are Bassani cats, x pipe and axle back but I ran the car for two months with that set up before the light ever came on.

Check my thread on page 3 about "CEL with no codes." It has happen to me twice in the last 2 weeks and both times my Predator tells me no codes. Have not taken mine to the dealer since the car still runs great. Just going to keeep an eye on it.

mine has started doing weird things

it will blink , while its blinking power is greatly reduced, then it will go off

sometimes it will just come on and stay on, if its just on and not blinking it runs and drives fine

no codes here as well..

Bad gas maybe? The PCM detecting some knock and freaking out a little til it feels good octane again? Maybe?
