It started happening this summer and gettng worse. when I start the car, the check engine light comes on, and I cannot start the car until it goes off. It takes between 30 -60 seconds before the light goes out. Sometimes, the check engine light does not come on and the car starts immediately.

I have started using premium fuel only, but does not help. I had the oil changed before this started happening. Someone said it could be the computer needs to be reset.

Have the computer scanned for code/s-you have a problem within the engine management system that caused the CEL to turn on-This is your starting point of diagnosis,finding out what's going on.
