How many miles?
Is the light blinking?
Did you bother to get it scanned for free at any auto parts store? Codes?
I don't like your mechanic friend; Oprah has the feelings, not mechanics. Nothing's getting disconnected.
Clogged cat, bad thermostat

Service engine soon light comes on periodically, doesn't "blink". It comes on for awhile, which usually means the car will shut down or it stays on a while, minute maybe two, and then just goes off
Been scanned. Shows history of codes; ERG, MAF but no current codes and a shop had it for 3 days and it would not do what it does for me while there and they gave up!
The mechanic I referenced is good. He was just referring to the symptoms as I desricbed them and he said from what he knows and has experienced over the last 45 years doing mechanic work it sounds like it could be a loose/bad connection.
Anyone have any other theories?
