Mileage:
MIL was on steady on whole driving and noticed a lot of condensing under engine hood.
After coming home suddenly no more MIL. Probably caused by damp.
Noticed engine oil level was low. Added some of oil. Checked spark plug connections for all four plugs. Seemed fine. Need further monitoring.
