Do you know of anybody with a Legacy Accessport? Might be able to read the code without marrying it to the ECU...
The code has a 99% probability of just being an overheating CHECK YOUR GAUGES type of code, my stock one does that at 234, but I set mine at 210 (yeah standalones...kind of) because I want to know way ahead before the temp gauge even starts moving.
If its a common problem and the car is still under warranty, take it to them, dont even worry about it. I found out my overheating problem on track was due to a random coolant hose coming off my water pump had degraded over the years and was pushing coolant out and the thing just failed completely yesterday dumping all of my coolant out. Didnt realize it till I was filling up the radiator and I poured 2 gallons in and it still seemed empty and I was like...hmm my car doesnt take that much...then I heard the splattering of all the coolant, all 2 gallons on the floor :lol:
