Q: Code P2562
I went to AutoZone to get my check engine light check and this is what they gave me P2562 OBD-II Trouble Code: Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Circuit. So what is the best way to fix it. I think the turbo just need to be clean because it did this when I first got the car and that's what they said
My car has 97000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
