Engine light came on while idling. No change to car function or sound. Went to auto parts store and got car scanned for free with OBDII scanner tool. Scanner reported "System too lean" meaning something with gas to air ratio. Auto Parts guy recommend fuel additive to clean lines and stabilize fuel, costing 7$. There was a free printout of the scan which listed possible causes including one of many sensors malfunctioning or intake manifold and it's gasket. Light went off after scan. 36k miles on car. Light came on day after oil change and check up from dealership. My battery failed also one day after a complete check up. A metal plate under gas tank came loose one day after oil change. Translation: crappy work from dealership. Probably bumped some sensor in there...also had water pump break 1 year after purchase and needed new engine chip. Toyota and it's affiliates suck.
