dont know
you can buy a code reader for $50 on ebay.
I bought mine at sears for $79. I do not know if it will tell you what your problem is. My last codes were just mis fires. but reading the forums pointed to MAS or vacuum leak. I still have a rough idle. its been 2 months now i cant figure it all out. in terms of easy to fix. search these forums for instrustions and most everything is easy to fix if you have courage and good light.

You can get the Bosch (same as the MB, without the MB logo) part for considerably less money. I purchased mine from a supplier in San Diego for about US$200.

However, those generic OBDII codes can tell you a lot; so one of those inexpensive readers can be well worth the investment.

auto zone Free Sears $79 Ebay $35
The $50-$79 code readers will do what AutoZone does for you for free.
After having them read my codes twice, and clear the codes...I decided I should buy my own. Looking at Ebay this morning, looks like they are down to $35 delivered.
