[QUOTE="TerryL, post: 17965, member: 5735"] Ok. The 2020’s have an oil comsumption issue. You need go have it checked to see if it was ever in the shop to have that fixed. The dealership could tell you that. It is a factory recall but has to be done before you reach 150k. 2000 is a lot for that. The converter is around 500 now thru the dealership but check the cost with them to be sure. The job takes less than 2 hours. If you are mechanically inclined do it your self with an aftermarket. The abs code is your braking system. Maybe you have stiuck calipers. Check your fluid first. Top it off if low. Then have your brakes checked if it continues. The 300 code is a cylinder misfilre. If it doesn’t return then ok. Could be caused by the oil comsumption issue. If you get the dealership to fix your oil consumption issue, if you have one, then get them to replace the converter too as the consumption issie causes the converter to go bad. Fight for that. My 2010 has 250k on it and I still have oil issues but it think it’s my valve seals and I can replace my cat 6 times to equate to the head repair and install cost. I can get about 2 years of local driving before I need a cat. [/QUOTE]
