Q: Check engine light keeps coming back on
My car has around 90,000 miles and the check engine light is on. There were codes that indicated there was misfiring of cylinders. I had them replaced. The chack engine light appeared again. I used the BG and Seafoam injector cleaners. The light reset and then came back on yet again. The coil in the cylinder 1 was replaced. It didn't help. What could be causing the check engine light to keep coming back on? Thank you in advance.

Hello. I would need to know the exact codes to be able to give good information about this. If you have a reoccurring misfire code, then a compression test needs to be done to see if there is an internal engine problem. If the misfire is for multiple cylinders, then you may have a fuel system problem, or more commonly a timing belt problem. Both of these are common problems on this vehicle. Knowing the codes is the only way to know for sure.
