LOLz at turbz wyres

Its OBDII so a code should be similar to the following. “P0300 - Random multiple misfire”

If they didn’t give you a similar number than we are all stumped and will need another scan with a more competent operator.

All “P” codes are for powertrain. These are the emissions and performance codes for the engines and transmissions(auto) multiple sensors, circuits, and actuators
