Engine Mechanical problem
2008 Hyundai Accent 4 cyl Automatic 47070 miles

My check engine light just came on in my car. I took it to get an oil changed and the light checked, they usually do it for free. They said that there was not any oil on the dip stick and that it was the problem. I had to take it to the dealership. I am not sure if the last place that changed my oil did it wrong. There has been a small click in my engine for about 4 days, but it goes away after a few minutes. Is there anyway to know what is wrong with it, and how much it will cost?

If the check engine light came on, I need to know what code is there. Most nationally recognized parts store will do it for free. To the best of my knowledge, the oil light would have come on if you were low on oil, but not the check engine. Try a parts store. Also, if the check engine light is on, chances are it is a sensor problem that should be under the emission warranty (100%).
