this irritable fault code kept appearing on n off for the last month,so i finally brought the car in to the dealership.the head mechanic plug in the obd n quickly come to the conclusion its the exhaust.he further explain that the 02sensors will trigger off these codes n only remedy is to return to stock.on the same note,he told me thats its safe to continue using it unless the cel is flickering instead of the solid light.question is-how many of you continue to drive with this cel?

 

I have never had a check engine light. What exhaust are you using?

 

That does not sound right to me, I recently had the CEL come on after installing my 4th aftermarket exhaust. The mechanic plugged in and found one of my sensors was failing ( there are 4 of them ). He replaced the faulty sensor and no problems .

 

thanks-what software and exhaust are you guys running?i am running the upsolute with awe exhaust.mklock-did the dealer replace those sensors under warranty?

 

i dont get any codes and im running straight pipes ... at least half the time

 

gneypiks,
Are you running the 300 or 100 cell cats? BTW how do you like the AWE exhaust?

 

i had a fabspeed with 100 cel cats and never had a problem...

 

awe 300 cel cat.initial fitting problems(read my previous thread).overtime,the sound deepens/throatier n i am really enjoying it. figure its the upsolute program,strange thing is the dealer did not pick up on this when he did the obd reading.upsolute experts out there,any advise?

 

........not a chance. The part and install of the sensor was completely out of my pocket.
