The check engine light code came on and i got it checked out it gave me the code po456.I need to know what that means.
Usually this P0456 code is caused by an incorrect or faulty gas cap. Filling the fuel tank with the engine running could conceivable cause this code as well or if the cap wasn't properly tightened. Any of the following could also be the cause:
* A small leak in any of the EVAP hoses or fuel tank hoses
* A small leak in the purge valve or vent valve
* The EVAP Canister may be leaking

SOURCE: what does this code mean?
P0460 Code - Fuel
Level Sensor Circuit Malfunction.
I'm not sure what you mean
by you
mixed gas, does that mean you switched to a different station or
octane level?
Does the gas gauge still work fine? As long as it works fine you could
keep
driving for a few more tanks to see if the problem goes away. If you
overfill
or run the tank too low it can cause issues with the fuel sender.
When
the pump
clicks off, you're done filling. Though at 175K miles the fuel sender
could
just have gone bad. If you start to see symptoms then take it into the
shop
definitely. About the only thing you could do prior to that is if
you're comfortable
you could use a digital volt ohm meter (DVOM) and measure the sensor
readings
at the tank (at the electrical connections).
Good luck.

DTC P1506 is set when the PCM detects the
engine idle speed is greater than the desired rpm. This is most commonly
caused by a dirty or bad IAC valve. Cleaning the throttle body will,
most likely, cure this problem.
p1131 means that the bank #1 O2 sensor, the bank closest to the firewall,
cylinders 1-3 is showing a lean mixture. Could be a vacuum leak, a
misfire on that bank, an exaust leak upstream of the O2 sensor, fuel
control or injector problem on that bank, a faulty O2 sensor, faulty
PCM, faulty wiring in the engine control wiring harness.
P0171In the vast majority of cases, simply cleaning the MAF sensor does
the trick. I
find it's
best to take it off and spray it with electronics cleaner or brake
cleaner.
Make sure you are careful not to damage the MAF sensor, and make
sure it's
dry before reinstalling also Inspect all vacuum and PCV hoses, replace if necessaryCheck for a dirty fuel filter and proper fuel pressure
SOURCE: What does check engine light code po 1405 mean?
P1405- DPF EGR Sensor Upstream Hose Off or Plugged
EVAP Small Leak (0.020") Detected
Possible Causes:
EVAP fuel tank or canister vapor hoses leaking or damaged.EVAP system component leaking, fuel cap loose or missing.Leak detection pump damaged or leaking.
