Just bought a 2010 Matrix XRS. When I bought it I noticed it had some history codes which is normal for newer cars that have aged so I just cleared them. Usually replacing the battery or having a dying battery makes the cars ECM go nuts and trip codes. Yesterday I was idling my car in my...

Hey all, I have been trying to help a friend out with their 01 Sequoia SR5, it has about 240K on the clock but the engine is still running strong. It has been having some hiccups for a few years on and off. A couple of years back it started dying and acting like it had a dead battery, a new...
