Took the Pace out for a test drive yesterday. First time since service center cleaned the mass air flow sensor and K&N air filter (washed and re-oiled) 2 weeks ago. Engine light illuminated after maybe 20 miles. Same as before. No drivability issues during the 75 miles on the highway. By way of background, a couple things that may be related.
First, mileage on the motorhome during the 20,000 miles we've had it has always been in the 5.5 - 6.5 range. Even while traversing Midwest minimal hill country at 60-65 mph. That's after adjusting mileage for generator use. Usually I adjust at about .6mpg for every hour of use.
Second, it can take quite some time to downshift during minimal hill climbing, maybe 3-4% grades. From time to time, I've had to take my foot off the gas and let it slow a bit before it would downshift.
