Did this work for you? Got the service engine soon light today myself. Just tightened cap and about to drive around.

Edited to add: Well, apparently it was just a loose gas cap. Light is now off.

This car is going to kill me. I try and keep the interior and exterior looking perfect. Religiously checking fluid levels, etc.

Maybe I should have kept my Pathfinder! That sucker was a tank. NO maintenance at all except regular oil changes (at Wal-Mart, Quick Lube, wherever) and a new set of tires. Not a single problem since it was built late 2000. As for keeping it clean and perfect, I bought used (from a friend which is how I know the vehicle's history), and it already had a number of paint chips and parking lot door dings. It was very low maintenace.

J/K, while the above is true about my Pathy, I wouldn't trade back for the Z. I love my 370, and that's part of the reason I'm spending so much time doting over it.
