Hi there , good evening to you
Ok the cluster self test is no good these are internal cluster codes and are not reliable or relavent
You need to have a diagnostic fault code check done on the PCM
Nearly all garages have the equipment to do this
The most common faults we see are intake manifold runner control issues and HEGO (lambda sensor faults )
If the vehicle is still running ok eg no misfire then it will probably be one of the above
Again this is fault code dependent as the fault code check is an imperative part of correctly diagnosing this issue

yes there is a know problem with the fuel system. fuel pump breaks down, empty your fuel filter into a bowl and check for metalic, if you have this in the filter your pump is F..... along with all the other common rail stuff. expensive job... error codes though, i find that hard to believe, fuel pressure faults will occur, i think you garage does not know what to do. or does not want to tell you the cost of the job and he will be in doubt himself of wether he is right..... was you engine coil light flashing at any point.!!!

your engine code means "big leak" in the evap control system, this system has alot of pieces, but you are looking for a vacuum leak most probably, look at your vacuum hoses, and refer to the vacuum diagram stuck under your hood for routing, see if you have a bad hose, or disconnected hose some where. these are small vacuum hoses that attach to the purge valve, air filter housing, and charcoal cannister. let me know what you find.
Testimonial: "Found the leak on the purge control valve. The hard plastic vacum line had holes worn in it from vibration. Thanks"

It could be a spark plug, plug wire, or a coil. Sometimes thay break down intermittently. If it needs a tuneup, that would be the first thing to do.
SOURCE: what does this code mean?
P0460 Code - Fuel
Level Sensor Circuit Malfunction.
I'm not sure what you mean
by you
mixed gas, does that mean you switched to a different station or
octane level?
Does the gas gauge still work fine? As long as it works fine you could
keep
driving for a few more tanks to see if the problem goes away. If you
overfill
or run the tank too low it can cause issues with the fuel sender.
When
the pump
clicks off, you're done filling. Though at 175K miles the fuel sender
could
just have gone bad. If you start to see symptoms then take it into the
shop
definitely. About the only thing you could do prior to that is if
you're comfortable
you could use a digital volt ohm meter (DVOM) and measure the sensor
readings
at the tank (at the electrical connections).
Good luck.

change the fuel sensor.is near the gas pump on the gas tank.cold joints on the sensor.isnt repairable you must change the sensor.
The only way to find out why the engine management light is on is to have a scan of the engine management control module carried out using an appropriate code reader, this will give you the standard EOBD codes for example a catalyst efficiency code would show P0420. If you want to do this on a DIY basis then cheap code readers are available on the internet for around $75.00, these code readers also reset the light after the fault has been fixed. if this was helpful please leave me good feedback
