P2A00 is the airfuel sensor. dealership should be able to reset it. but i dont think that will fix it. It may pop back on

This happened to me a while back. Water was in the motor and it needed 3 oil changes and had to clean the hell out of the head and the valve cover and the rest was burned off with the heat of the motor.

FAQ'd (again) for the people who think hydrolocking their motor with a CAI is a myth.
