09 vert 6MT check light on, wtf!!!

alrighty folks, my 09 has a service engine soon light on. i had it scanned, and it say's p1091, something about tumbler something, lol. anyone had this code before? the 1st time it came on, was october 20 or something, towed it to the dealership since i had zero throttle. they said battery was low, forgot the code on the invoice, could be the battery, since i rarely drive the car.

started it up sunday to go to the hobby store, and the check engine light is on. the thing is, that the car started just like it has alway's, no slow starts or anything. i'm wondering if its a battery being low... oh btw, i only have 4800 miles.

Since its under warranty I would take it to the dealer instead of guesswork

i got 2 different definitions on what that code is.

they are:
•P1091 – Pre-Catalyst Fuel Trim Too Rich Bank 1
P1091 Tumble generator valve #1 (RH) malfunction (stuck close)


unfortunately, i couldn't locate an actual fix (out of the normal resetting procedures).

if you only have 4800 miles on it, i wouldn't hesitate to bring it back into the dealer and get it fixed. your car shouldn't be throwing any codes when it's so young
