Default More often than not, it's something simple.

Aside from ice blocking something, it usually won't fix itself however.

Default Sometimes it does fix itself. I had a CEL several months ago, but it dissappeared 1 day later.

There were also no codes stored. The car ran the same before, during and afterwards.

Don't underestimate your car's ability to heal itself :-)

Default You are right, I suspect chaos is involved when that happens.
