@Mike Overlay and all of you other helpful gurus.....
My friends own a really nice 2011 Cadillac SRX that is displaying the engine light. They have taken it to a local shop who is saying that his testing instrument is indicating that the first and third catalytic converters are ok but the one in the middle is a little off.....(I hope I've described that correctly) The vehicle runs like a top, has no performance issues, and has 103,000 miles.
Anyways......the shop guy mentioned that a dealership could make an adjustment in the sensory detection equipment or computer to raise the threshold and keep the catalytic converters from setting off the engine light. He mentioned that this was something that happens from time to time with the Cadillac SRX along that model year and that he does not have whatever tool or device the dealership has to make that adjustment.
Is this something any of you are aware of and would you advise taking it on to a dealership for that adjustment? Or is there something else that can be done to address the engine light issue?
Any help would really be appreciated.
