The car's computer is having trouble adjusting the fuel injector for cylinder 4, and it's stuck at its lowest setting.
The engine control module (ECM) is unable to adjust the fuel injector offset for cylinder 4, indicating it has reached its minimum limit.
The P2C58 code is triggered when the ECM detects that the adaptive learning value for the fuel injector offset on cylinder 4 has reached its minimum threshold. This can indicate a problem with the fuel injector, wiring, or the ECM itself.
