I would check the code (there's a stickied thread in this section on how to do that)
But I'd guess it is because you do not have a vtec motor and the P28 is a vtec ecu, so there's one code.

Also the ecu is either an auto or manual ecu and that might not match the transmission in your car. That will also throw a code.

But only way to know for sure is to check the code :thumb:
