That message means the Teleaide system is not working. IT has nothing to do with performance. The most common cause of failure are the buttons in the console.

Just replace the distributer on my 93 corolla wagon 4 days ago- now the check engine light is on after 3 miles of driving- the mechanic said it's because the mufler has a hole on on it-is true?

Not the muffler,the hole has to be before the
exhaust converter,don't you ask questions or
understand what your told?

In the future explain that you go to a mechanic
& not work on your own vehicles

Every question on this site is incomplete & applies
the owner works on every vehicle

If went to a repair shop, why did you not have ALL issues
repaired once & for all?

I have a 2000 vw jetta with 178000 miles, I just had a new radiator put in, now when I start my car sometimes, it will not turn on, the engine light comes on and when I check under the hood, my oil is low...

First, get under the hood and locate where the oil is coming from...that will be the place to start locating the problem. Is the oil filler cap in place or missing? Are all fluid levels where they are supposed to be? Is the vehicle running hot when you drive it?

You should never buy any van type vehicle, in the first place,
the transaxle will fail any day.
I used to own a trans repair shop

Other then sell it,I would,I won't ride in one, not safe

Your correct,you should go 5000 miles and maybe use a 1/2 qt,
on most vehicles, none.

So you do a cylinder leak down test
Check Emission Gas Readings,to see what that shows
I suspect a broken oil ring,scored cylinder, broken piston
skirt or serious cylinder head issues.

Never go to a dealer. Calling or Visiting is okey

Maintenance Required message on. Purchased

this light can come on even thought service is not actually due. if the service was performed and the light was not on at the time, sometimes you cannot reset them if they are not actually lit, or 99% of the time the technician forgets if the light was not on. stop by your shop and they can reset it for you in just a few moments, and for no charge. good luck!
