I've got a 2007 Mitsubishi Spyder Eclipse with a "Service Engine Soon" light. AutoZone told me that it was the gas cap - it isn't. Today Firestone guessed that there was a leak or something in a "canister" somewhere around the gas tank and it would cost $500-$700 (maybe more) to fix it. Any ideas?

An evap leak could include the gas cap or ventilation for the fuel system. Did they give you the codes they pulled from the cars computer?

My 2002 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GT (6 c) has the check engine light on. I took it to Meineke and they said it's the 401 code for the exhaust. They changed some small part but the light came back on again. Then they said it's the EGR valve so they change that as well to no effect. I took the car there a third time and they checked the exhaust system for leaks and made some more readjustments. The light came back on again. Now they say they have no idea what it might be. What should I do next? 2 Answers
