I know they still do it in Texas and Kansas. I'd call and ask.

Autozone doesn't do it, anymore; at least in California. They did it for me for free about a year and a half ago. I tried to get them do it for me again about 6 months ago, but now they want about $90. Almost as expensive as bringing it to a dealer.

Joseph, if you were close enough, I'd scan it for you. You can just about buy your own scanner for the cost of having it done. I bought 1 called Car Codes for about $130. They have a base model that is $122 but mine can also be connected on USB with an adapter when the clunky serial port is no longer available. Another one is ScanTool for about $110. These tools not only give you the ability to run the OBD2 scan but clear the codes, and read all other sensor info as well like 0-60 time, hp, etc (you need a computer). Check out these sites: -JoeB

I think maybe i will just go buy one from autzone and return it. :oops:

i just found out you cannot return the scanner. They stop provide the service because they got lawsue from BBB who were trying to protect auto mechanic shops.

Does anyone interested in this groupbuy?
