I had the same problem with my 96 Neon. Take your car to an auto parts store and they can run a free test on it to determine why the light is on. Mine was due to the Oxygen Sensor and EGR Value.

I have a 1997 Neon as well, and it is a fairly well known fact that if you rip on the car hard once or twice (burn out, etc.) the ecu thinks that there's something wrong and puts on the service engine light. If you drive it nicely after that, the ecu will realise that there's nothing wrong and the light will turn off after a couple days, or a long highway trip (couple hours or more of straight highway driving). Don't worry about it, I trigger mine all the time :D.

1998 Dodge Neon R/T 2.0L

Summary:

I like performance and will pay, very good buy

Faults:

Not long after we bought it, It overheated and blew a head gasket.

General Comments:

Very satified with performance. It does use a little more fuel than most four cylinders. The sunroof makes a funny noise when closing. This car could be very very fast with the right touch. Handles OK. Sport or performance tires improve handling. Brakes OK.

1998 Dodge Neon Coupe 2.0

Summary:

It can be reliable and cost efficient if it is maintained properly

Faults:

The only problems that I have had with parts are due to natural wear and tear.

I've had to replace the head gasket. This was not a difficult task. The only thing that I had to worry about was purchasing the head gasket. No more than twenty dollars.

I have had to replace the camshaft positioning sensor. This was kind of my fault for replacing the head gasket a little bit late. It was no problem replacing this myself, as well. I spent fifteen dollars on this.

I replaced numerous parts due to regular maintenance.

The only real problem that troubles me is how numerous models have had problems with the original paint peel.

General Comments:

Overall, this car has proved to be reliable. Compared to a friend of mine who has the same model, I have noticed that the outcomes depend on how well the automobile is maintained.

At the mileage that I have on my car, I am surprised that the engine still has life and power for a few more years.

The fuel efficiency is outstanding. It does not take much to fill up on fuel and make it last.

You read my mind! Regular oil changes and other general maintenance procedures make all the difference. My '98 Neon is at 200 000km and is still running fine.

Bottom line people... look after the car and it will look after you!

1998 Dodge Neon Sport 4.2 DOHC

Summary:

Great Dodge car for fun!

Faults:

Head gasket was leaking.

Main seals had to be replaced at 100,000 miles.

General Comments:

This car was the best till some lady ran a red light and took the front off of my Neon. This car was dependable for me till the end. I would buy another one if I could find one for sale again.

The car handled nice and easy. Depending on who was driving, it could really go. This car was so wonderful and worth the pain of fixing to have it. I loved it all the way till the end!
