My car is running as normal but my check engine light came on. I took it to auto zone where they told me that I had to go to a dealer, they told me it was p0444. I am trying to avoid the dealer. I had it reset once before, I drove 800+ miles before it came on again, I had a tune up done two months ago... any suggestions?

get a new coolant temperature sensor.

the orginal black ones are faulty.

make sure it is the green topped one.

also do a normal tune up with spark plugs, clean the maf, maybe replace coils packs.

go to a shop and see if there is a code stored in memory. anything else would just be a blind guess. If you are near an Autozone that do a scan for free

Major auto parts stores have code readers and will read out your codes for free. The engine light indicates that at least one code is waiting to be read.

Testimonial: "Ugh... thank you. I do not know why I didn't think of that. Thank you."

Dodge avenger 2008 codes

You can go to Advance Auto, Auto Zone, or other auto parts stores and they will hook up their OBD diagnostic tool to your car and it will read the codes that are causing you your problem. Then they can tell you what the code means, or at least a general idea of where the problem is. For instance, I had a check engine light on, I took it to Advance Auto, they identified the code and told me it was related to the ignition or a spark problem. He told me in his experience to check the spark plugs and spark plug wires first. It was a cracked spark plug boot that gave me an ignition problem whenever it rained or was damp/humid out. You can also google the actual code once you know it, the auto parts stores will give you a printout after they run the OBD scan tool on your car.

Check the fuses. Usually the data link connector is powered of an accessory fuse or the cigar fuse. If the fuse is blown than there will be no communication with the computer. Once the fuses are checked and any blown ones are replaced bring it back to have it scanned.

I agree that it sounds like a coil.

O2 Sensors

Autozone oxygen sensors do not function properly in Toyota vehicles. Just had a Tacoma yesterday with the same issue. New sensors, runs poor, check engine light on. Toyota sensors fixed it right now.

Check Engine Light

Actually, just go to your local auto parts store and check the codes for free. If you go to a dealer, look forward to shelling out a minimum of $75 dollars. Most of the time its a oxygen sensor or something like that.
