Frequently Asked Questions

What is the most common reason for check engine light on a 2025 Buick Envista?

• Loose or faulty gas cap is the most frequent and simplest cause—an easy fix that often clears the code.
• Oxygen sensors and air/fuel trim issues (lean/rich conditions) are common and affect fuel economy and emissions.
• Ignition misfires from spark plugs, coils, or fuel system issues can trigger the light and risk catalytic converter damage.
• Evaporative system leaks (EVAP), such as a cracked hose, often cause emissions-related codes.
• Bring your Envista to Coggin Buick/GMC of Orange Park so factory-trained technicians can diagnose correctly and save you immediate and long-term costs.

How long does a check engine light service take?

• Initial diagnostic scan typically takes 30–60 minutes to read codes and assess the issue with OEM-grade tools.
• Simple fixes like tightening a gas cap or replacing a sensor can often be completed the same day.

What does it mean when the check engine light comes on in a 2025 Buick Envista?

• It signals the vehicle’s onboard diagnostics detected a problem with emissions, engine, or powertrain systems.

• The car may still drive but with reduced fuel efficiency and potential performance issues until diagnosed.
• Our factory-trained technicians use OEM scanners to identify the exact code and recommend the most cost-effective solution that protects your long-term ownership costs.

What is the first thing to check when the check engine light comes on?
