You know what's even better? If you buy the OBD readers they come with programs that have the codes for all the different cars. You type them in, and they'll give you what it means.

This is a little more "detailed" than the codes provided in the ECU codes sticky and I pm'ed this thread to JDMLifestyle so maybe he could add it.

Having the code as well as some of the causes > just having the code.
