Default Engine light Finally popped on

So i just rolled over to 90k. I was driving home doing bout 45 on the highway through the snow. Then all of a sudden bam the Light comes on. Meanwhile nothing feels wrong with the car driving it all the rest of the way home. Im a couple hundred miles over my oil change im thinkin it could be that...if anyone has an opinion on anything. I doubt anythings ever been replaced on the car.

Take it to autozone or any other auto parts store and have them scan the code. That should give you an idea of what is wrong.

170 is a fuel trim malfunction. I really wouldnt worry about it. Its probably just a one off.If it comes back after the code is erased... then you have a problem. At this stage i wouldnt worry.
