How worried should I be?
So I do have the powertrain warranty on there and I do have an additional 2 year warranty that covers pretty much everything except wear and tear parts like tires, brakes, etc etc....
Just bought this car w/ 52k on it used, runs perfectly fine until I noticed the CEL came on after noticing that my remote start wasn't working. So based off of this I mean on a scale of 1-10 after my dealer takes a look at Saturday, should I be worried?? |

If I'm not mistaken, remote start won't work when there is a cel light.

Right, but I'm not concerned about the remote start. The remote start by default for safety reasons (I suppose) doesn't allow itself to be started by remote.
I'm more concerned with these codes... I mean has anyone experienced this before? Does anyone think this will cost anything? I gotta wait until Saturday but I'm just a bit nervous is all. Like I said, I do have those 2 warranties still so.... yeah. |

If it's the MAF sensor or O2 sensor wouldn't those be covered under warranty? I can't say on the Camaro but those sensors on my Jeep are cheap and fairly easy to change.

Pretty sure the MAF sensor is mentioned in the huge air intake thread. They mentioned replacing ones that were too sensitive or something like that...

Last night when I started it I noticed it kind of... choked for like half a second when it started ... almost as if it hesitated. I guess I'm just not sure what to think... Bought it used with 50k miles. 1 owner, but doesn't seem to be beat on... I just know I'll baby the heck out of it for as long as I own it. |

Do you have an OBD2 code reader?

Nope, I had Onstar run a diagnostics for me. Said it was the P0171 "Fuel Control System" but not to quote them on it as far as letting the dealership know.
So I took it to autozone for a second opinion, same thing what you see in the picture above but with a few extra possibilities. Last but certainly not least, taking it to the dealership Saturday to find out what they say. |

I wouldn't worry too much. It should be covered under your warranty.
