I had this problem when my fuel level sensor in the tank started getting wacky.

When the sensor in the tank starts screwing up, the computer gets confused about what your mileage really is and send you the error code. It comes and goes depending on whether the sensor is stuck that day.

I had my sensor replaced under warranty. The access is under the back seat so not as nasty a job as we might think.

There may be other conditions that also causes this error, but the sender was my problem.

Good Luck,
