IT is harmful if left un repaired as it has the capability of melting holes in pistons.. Run the fault codes or check /change the air/ fuel mixture settings and ignition timing of the engine . Most engines run around 10-12 degrees advanced and any more than that will help cause the problem, as the spark occurs too early and the extra pressure built up by the combustion will combust the rest of the mixture in the cylinder. Fuel quality is important so if you are using a standard grade fuel( 89-91 octane rated) fill with a premium fuel with a higher fuel octane rating . Give a miss to E- fuel mixtures

Every three months or three thousand miles.

Best thing to do is replace it. You can try getting one from a Pull-A-Part or junk yard reasonable or order one from a parts store but they are very expensive and you really need to know how to do it correctly. Otherwise you could damage other components. When it comes to car computers, the best advice is take it to your dealer and let them install it and reset it.
