Q
is maintenance required the same as check engine

No, "maintenance required" and "check engine" lights indicate different things in a vehicle. The "maintenance required" light usually signals that the car is due for routine service, such as an oil change or tire rotation, based on the vehicle's mileage or a time schedule. It's a reminder for preventative upkeep to keep the car running smoothly. On the other hand, the "check engine" light illuminates when the vehicle's onboard diagnostics system detects a problem related to the engine or emission control system. This could be anything from a loose gas cap to more serious engine issues. Therefore, while both lights signify the need for attention, the "maintenance required" light is more about regular maintenance, whereas the "check engine" light suggests there might be a specific problem that needs immediate diagnosis and repair. It's important to address both signals promptly to maintain the vehicle's performance and longevity.
