I'm not sure what the problem is. You put the key in. Some lights came on. You started the engine. The lights went off. Sounds normal to me. edit: If there's a problem, the lights will stay on while you're driving. It's normal for lights (brake, oil, engine, etc.) to be on before the engine starts.
Thanks guys, as for this...I put the key in and had it in 'run', which is just before turning all the way to normally start the engine and the panel lights came on and after 'Maintenance Req'd' disappeared shortly, the 'check engine light' blinked a couple of times and then it disappeared.

Check your manual. When I see a light like that on my Jeep I put the key in and turn it to the run position. That is the first "click" before you turn the key all the way to start the engine.

You'll notice reduced power on demand and poor gas mileage, but because it builds up over time you might not notice until the pump dies. I remember two filters one in the engine compartment which normally gets changed and the one that…
hey plaing, canadian tire will test the battery for you for free I think. Have the battery checked for sure if you don't drive much. Also if you need an OBD2 reader, canadian tire might have these for rent as well. You will need to look up how to plug and read the diagnostic tool plus look up the code to identify any…
