Resetting the check engine light on a 2012 Acura TSX Sport Wagon may be a simple electronic clear, but resetting without fixing the root cause risks repeat failures and voided warranties. Our technicians at Coggin Acura Fort Pierce use diagnostic data to repair the underlying issue and then reset the system, ensuring the problem won’t recur and that repairs are performed with OEM parts and proper calibration. Choosing the dealership means documented work, certified technicians, and warranty protection — all factors that provide immediate peace of mind and long-term savings when compared to short-term fixes. We provide transparent estimates, explain warranty coverage, and offer service financing so repairs can be completed promptly and affordably.

2012 Acura TSX Sport Wagon Check Engine Light Codes
Common check engine light codes on a 2012 Acura TSX Sport Wagon include P0420 (catalyst system efficiency), P030x (misfires), P0171 (system too lean), P0135 (O2 sensor heater), and P0455 (EVAP large leak). Left untreated, P030x misfires can damage the catalytic converter, which may cost $1,000 or more to replace. A P0420 left unchecked often signals catalyst wear and reduced fuel economy and may ultimately lead to emissions failures. EVAP leaks and O2 sensor issues degrade efficiency and emissions; repair now to save on fuel and avoid larger repairs. At Coggin Acura Fort Pierce we prioritize accurate code interpretation, transparent pricing, and OEM repairs performed by certified technicians — a combination that often reduces overall ownership cost versus piecemeal fixes. We also offer service financing and frequent service specials to make diagnostics and repairs accessible.
