CEL 21 - coolant temp sensor. doesn't make the car run badly whatsoever - it's just a bitch during cold starts, as the
ECU assumes the car is running stupidly hot, to the point where it enrichens the mixture and turns the radiator fans on. makes for sweeeeeeet backfire in the mornings but, the neighbours love me
quite a nice little precaution, and ensures the car is properly warmed up prior to driving. just don't want to imagine the troubles during winter i'll have with it when OAT is obviously lower - so i'll definately have to have it rectified by then. the constant check engine light being on also gets on my nerves..
protip: don't spray water on the top of the heads after cleaning up a coolant spillage. i learnt the hard way
