Re: Help! Starting to HATE my new SRX :-(

I had two sessions with the "check engine" light in my V6 08. Finally turned out to be some sort of valve in the fuel tank vent system. As Superjim said, a good mechanic will fix it. As for the car I get 15 mpg around town and some hwy and I really like it. Last hwy trip was ~20 mpg. We get ~24 hwy with my wife's Seville, the SRX is higher with a larger frontal area.

I had an V8 Ford Explorer and got 12 mpg around town. The SRX is a much better vehicle.

FYI 2009 Consumer Reports Overall mpg: Honda Pilot 18, Cadillac SRX 16.
