P0318 Severity
Once the vehicle's onboard system no longer detects the issue, most codes will disappear on their own. If your vehicle still has this code, however, it should be properly diagnosed to avoid a more serious problem.
For a proper diagnosis, RepairPal Certified shops have the equipment, tools, and expertise.
Moderate severity codes might not threaten the vehicle's safety or functionality immediately, but you should still get it diagnosed within a reasonable time frame to keep your car running well.
Rough Road Hardware allows the engine control module (PCM) to determine if there is a problem with the engine or if the vehicle is being driven on a rough road. If the PCM can not decide between the two, the PCM will set code P0318.
