I have OBDII connectors for all my cars to scan the codes and look them up, then clear them. Your local Autozone will scan the codes for you and you can look them up online, or they can tell you what the codes are. HAs it been roughly 5k miles since your last oil change? That may be what the new code is.

I'll never let a stealership touch my car, usually. That $500 job was really probably more like a $50 job, they inflate your parts and charge you a flat number of hours per job, which could be 2 hours even if it takes 30 minutes to complete. It's a total racket.
