Ok so we go on vacation, it was about 900 miles round trip.....blah blah blah...LOL and come back, a week later my 2001 PT Limited is showing the engine light on. The code came up [:I]. I see this is an emissions issue UGH!! My PT only has 41,000 miles on it and I surely wasn't expecting this.

I read a posting that 99% of the time its the gas cap and so I took it off and put it back on. No luck, light still on. So I went and bought a factory Chrysler PT Cruiser gas cap. I have not turned on the car yet to see if the light is STILL on.

If it was the gas cap, how long before that light goes off, or should it go off instantly? Or perhaps do I need to reset something first?

If its NOT the easy fix with the gas cap and engine light does NOT go off, how much is this repair going to soak me?

Unbeleivable that I could have an emissions problem this early on and of course not under warranty, if so.

Also if the repair is very expensive, will driving it around for a bit, in the meanwhile cause problems? The car is running great otherwise.
