yes, after you wait for them to help other customers they are very helpful, just be prepared to wait a little if your local autozone is busy.

If you've had a CEL that went away they may be able to check OBD2 memory for codes. So even if you don't have a CEL and it had came on before they should be able to check it if you tell them that.

My CEL came on and went off, but I knew the code was stored, so I told them and he was unsure if they could pull it up, but sure enough they got the code.
