Default Brand new car (8K miles) with CEL

Good morning everyone,

My 2007 GPW had it's CEL light turn on after about 7500 miles for a 0135 code (Primary O2 sensor). I cleared the code with a scanner and it was fine for about 500 miles. As I was idling at a light, it came on again. I assume it's the same code, but I haven't checked.

What do you think may be the issue? I know it's under warranty and I have an appointment at the dealer in a couple of days already.

This happened first after I filled up at a shady gas station. However, ~500 miles later, there's more than a full tank of fresh good fuel in there.

Read on for a rant.....
====================

No luck with S2000s. First one was stolen 9 months after I purchased it. Due to legal issues and that it was used in a felony, I had to give it up to the state. After dealing with laywers and the insurance company I eventually didn't have to pay the remainder of the auction price, but still lost out on my $10K down payment, 9 months of payments, and 9 months of insurance payments.

My new 2007 was tapped in the rear 1 week after I bought it. Too little damage to do anything about it, but noticable by me.

1 month later, driving about 75mph, a lady's sunroof shattered in front of me after it flipped up on her car. Rained down on my car. $4000 in damages.

Just got it back from the body shop, new everything. .....until my CEL turns on.

Nice!

dont stess it. bring it to the dealer. this has been an issue with the 06/07's. the dealer has to replace the air/fuel sensor(this is what its called on the 06/07's), and then do a reflash to the ecu. they should know what to do with this, considering it is a recall/tsb. i havent had this issue on my 06 w/9100 miles, but i have heard this will only happen depending on your area(temp, humidity, etc.). this occurs due to something when the engine is warming up, and the sensor getting farked up.
