Well, I have my first Check Engine Light on my '06 GC SRT8. I believe it's self-inflicted though. I had to start up the engine cold and move the Jeep into the garage. I let it idle for a moment to get the oil pressure up before I shut it off.
When I started it up the next day, it acted like it was "loaded up" (flooded). It took a small bit longer to start, and ran rough for the first 15-20 seconds before the Hemi smoothed out. Then the CEL came on, but the Jeep is running fine. My question is: How many restarts does it take to clear the CEL if the condition that tripped the CEL is no longer occuring? (I am guessing it was caused by the brief mis-fire while starting). I guess I could try pulling the battery cable, but would rather not.
Thanks in advance!
