Check engine light came on today and I had it the code checked at the local
auto store. Came up as a P 1175 code, "Cam control Fault". The person at the
store didn't seem to know much about it. I can't get anyone to look at until
next week and I need to travel about 500 miles to pick up my daughter. my
queston is will it do ant harm to the engine driving it and does anyone have
any information on what the problem is and how to correct it? Car seems to
be running fine.

That's strange. My OBD list shows that code as applying to BMW and
Hyundai. Disconnect the battery ground wire for a few minutes to clear
the computer and then hook it back up. Then if the code comes back
then you have something wrong. Occasionally a code will come up and
mean nothing. I recently had a misfire on cyl 6 CE code but it went
away by itsekf after a few days.

P1175 seems to mean different things to different manufacturers. If
it's the cam sensor or other covered engine internal parts, then your
car may still be covered under the 5/60 powertrain warranty.

If so get it fixed for free.
