Is it a soft code, or a hard code? A soft code will reset itself within a set number of ignition cycles. A hard code will have to be reset by a scan tool.
You can take it into Autozone, they will read the codes for you and give you a print out. Maybe they can see something? The last time I had a hard code set it was from an O2 sensor.
I was just searching for a similar problem I have (thats how I found your post).
My SES light comes on....and this is a weird one....when I am going down an incline over 20-25 miles an hour, and hit a bump. Its a soft code and it resets itself after 6 ignition cycles. Its irritating because I have a class in a building on a hill...and if I dont crawl down it and avoid the bumps, it comes on. If I dont get hit there, it does it when I come down the hill from my parents house. It drives me crazy. I imagine that there is something loose somewhere...buy where???? Maybe someone else out there has a similar problem? Maybe yours is related? Who knows....no, really who knows? :-)

P2096 can come from several things but failed O2 (oxygen) sensor is a common cause. Fortunately, the warranty for O2 sensors was extended to 10 years/100K miles. The SES light started coming on in my 06 convertible, sometimes turned off at the next trip, but after a few months was on all the time. It turned out to be an O2 sensor and the dealer replaced it for free.
