hmm what's weird, just got a dashhawk and i had the P2096 code and P0107, and P2096.

 

P2096 Post Catalyst Fuel Trim System Low Limit Bank 1
P0107 Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor Circuit Low

 

thanks for the input, a catless downpipe would set those to cels off right?

 

Only the P2096.

The other is probably because your MAP is circling the drain.

 

i have this same code as we speak but i am not catless, i have a catted dp from zzp.
Just wondering if you figured out what what wrong with yours with that code.

thanks
mike

 

Nope haven't figured out what's wrong, besides the cel it's running fine. I'm prob going to take it in this week just to make sure nothing serious is wrong with it.

 

subd

 

yeh that is the samething with mine. i just have that P2096 code.

 

when you say P2096 low limit bank 1. that is a bad o2 sensor or could it also be something else. because i have this code right now.

 

I've been looking for information about the P2096 code. Apparently it's not all that common and isn't a directly sensed code, but rather a code that is calculated.

Here is a thread I found from a 300c forum.
http://www.300cforums.com/forums/srt...e-bueller.html

Below is an excerpt:

"Set Condition:
If the PCM multiplies short term compensation by long term adaptive as well as a purge fuel multiplier and the result is below a certain value for 30 seconds over two trips, a freeze frame is stored, the MIL illuminates and a trouble code is stored. Two Trip Fault. Three good trips to turn off the MIL.

Possible Causes:
EXHAUST LEAK
ENGINE MECHANICAL PROBLEM
1/2 O2 SENSOR
(K141) O2 SENSOR 1/2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT
(K299) O2 1/2 HEATER CONTROL CIRCUIT
(K904) O2 DOWNSTREAM RETURN CIRCUIT
FUEL CONTAMINATION"

Ours may be triggered differently, but it's a start at least.

 

thanks for that. i checked all my exhaust dp and back. looks good. The only thing that i am wondering if i just have a bad o2 sensor or i break something when installing dp. I never unplugged the o2 so it is all twisted.

My car is going into the shop next week for the possible broken lifter or roller. whatever it is that breaks.

thanks

OK, here is my issues... I NLS'd today and missed the gear. i revved high but hit the limiter. after that, my car started misfiring just as it would on a cold NLS. i shut it off, tried restarting it, but no change. sounds like a subaru. popping backfiring and misfiring. i have recently put a catless DP on. I'm getting p0107 code. also there is a lot of liquid in the exhaust, doesn't smell like coolant or gas, but there is a lot of it... whats wrong with my car? i posted this in a few places so....

 

P0107: Your MAP sensor went out.

Try resetting the ECU and sometimes this will bring it back. If it doesn't then you'll need another one. They are about $40, so not a huge deal I suppose.

You might have gone above 22.5psi for longer than a few seconds and your ECU is ignoring the reading thinking that the sensor went bad. Resetting it will make the ECU give the MAP another chance. If the MAP is still inop, your car will either throw another code, continue running funky, or both... and you'll need a new one.

What's basically happening is the car is using your MAF and some guesswork instead to figure out what the car is doing. The MAF doesn't have very fast response so suddenly adding or letting off the throttle will throw it off for a second and possibly cause popping, backfiring, and uneven boost.

 

bump good thread

 

very good stuff. sub'd.

 

this is awesome! im glad i found this thread! i had a crazy error pop up and ima print this 22pg book out and see what happened! awesome thread!

 

Would someone be able to explain how to read this chart properly. Say for example I am completely stock and throw code P0101. How do I read the info from this chart and troubleshoot?

 

Ok so P0101 is listed on the first page.

The second column shows you what function it's looking for.

Such as fuel trims exceeded. Then look 2 columns over and it shows you what value is needed to exceed the limit. Such as 20 for fuel trim. This means the car saw a fuel trim +/- 20%

So with P0101 wither your fuel trims are messed up or your MAP/MAF sensors are messed up. This could be due to an intake, air filter, air leak or sensor issue.

That's from my understanding

 

awesome! thanks for the explanation!

 

sub for when needed

 

I got a P0301 Cylinder 1 misfire, what could be the cause of this? It's runs fine until I get near 25psi of boost then it knocks and looses all power.

Dealer is acting like they can't get it to do it again.

 

About a week ago my car felt sluggish and a CEL came up which after scanning was found out to be a P0236. After the computer ID'd it at Autozone the alarm went away. Then, yesterday, my car felt sluggish again and sure enough a CEL came on. Today, however, it felt fine and the light went away this afternoon. I didn't get it checked out this time but I'm sort of assuming that it's the same P0236.

Has anyone had this problem before? I'm about to go check the guide posted and see what it says.

 

Yep had this problem with bad install or loose wires on the lower MAP sensor due to bad install of the GM Stage 1 kit.

 

Interesting. As far as I know I don't have the stage 1 kit, but I'll have to check out the sensor anyhow.

 

Thanks. So much easier than using Google!
