I have been on this site for some time now but this is my first post. I just got a new car finally with a 5spd and on the last tank I decided I would try some engine-off coasting. This went well except when I would cut the engine, via key and switch it back to on the check engine light would come on. It goes off after i clutch start so i assume it's just normal and is like the usual when you start the car. just wanted to make sure.

Thanks
