I've had the Forester for about 2 weeks now. It's a 2000 with about 105,000mi. Purchased from Michael Hohl, which means it was "inspected and serviced."

It just started giving a CEL this afternoon. I don't have any way of pulling the code, so I'm not sure what's going on.

I did check all the fluids; everything seems ok save for the 4EAT fluid - it keeps coming up over-full, but I may just need to let it cool down a bit more. I also checked and re-tightened the gas tank cap.

Any ideas for other items I can check out before dragging it through Moundhouse to get looked at? Perhaps stock cat or MAF needing replacement?
