2003 TC 115,000 miles. Gas milage has suddenly dropped from 20 mpg to 14 mpg. Runs good. Just had oil change. They did not mention any issues.
Check engine light on a couple days then went off. Has done this off and on for a couple years.

Seems to be a little dragy, but may just be paying closer attention.

When the Check Engine light turns on there is a diagnostic fault code stored in the Engine Computer. Reading those codes will lead you to the circuit or system with the problem, not necessarily the defective part. Many auto parts stores will read them for you for free.
