Hi everyone and happy holidays!
I recently had an engine light go on in earlier this month, and had the problem diagnosed as 4 faulty O2 sensors on the exhaust. I had them replaced and now 450 miles later it is on again. I spent some serious coin trying to find the problem the first time and now after it passed NYS inspection the light is on again. The vehicle is running perfectly fine. This morning when I started it up I smelled something strange, not the rotten egg smell normally associated with bad cats but a little different. Almost like a smoky, burning odor of some sort, all I know is that it wasn't normal, and the light went on soon after and the smell went away. I drove it around town and on a 40 minute highway round trip and the vehicle is actually running great. Mileage just turned 130k. I've heard this might be related to bad fuel, but I doubt that since I am having no drivability issues. Any and all input would be appreciated.
