This car has been in the shop more than its own garage the last few months.
The engine light came back on less than 24 hours after she was in the shop.
Today problem code P 0128 was displayed on the dash.

What is it please?

Thanks

128 is most commonly a thermostat that is opening too soon not allowing the engine to get to operating temp. a simple replacement of the thermostat would be worth a try.
