Check engine light codes. Get a code reader, or borrow one from an auto parts store to diagnose it

Most of the major auto parts stores will have OBDII code readers that you can borrow, and/or clerks that are savvy enough to hook it up and read whatever DTC's (diagnostic trouble codes) are saved on the cars engine control module (ECM). You can buy a decent one at Sears, and the instructions are a breeze to use them. It really helps out with the maintenance and diagnostic work on any modern car.

+1. You can find a no-frills model for less than $50; $100 will get a good one. That and a copy of the Factory Service Manual will allow you and the car to troubleshoot most problems.
