Ok car was at 4992 miles when my CEL came on....

i was just playing around on the streets and it came on (not going over 50)

I was really nervous so I drove it slow. but got on it a little to see if there was any boost leaks or misfiring. the thing is running absolutly perfect like it was before.

Im thinking it is my DP throwing a code????

I have a Hahn intake (custom vacuum line seal), CIA Catless DP, spare ecu with a pykotune.

Light was on all morning on the way to work.

IM going to see if my friend will come at lunch with his code reader and see what this is. its making me nervous..

PS. just broke 5K miles.

 

please go check the code and get back.



I am not sure why people keep posting these threads about codes without getting it scanned.



I am all for helping people but you cant expect us to do all the work.

 

its probably nothing. Its either the intake or the DP throwing the code. Just have it deleted before inspection time so you will pass.

 

I highly doubt its the DP.... subd

 

I wanted to post this for ideas. ill update this after lunch most likely.

let u guys know in an hour or 2

 

Yah, scan it first. No need to be nervous or drive it that carefully. If it was a serious problem that was an immediate danger the CEL would be flashing. A solid light just means you need to have the car checked soon. If you have a DP that very well could be the problem. The majority of the time its an emissions issue...O2 sensor, cat etc.. Get us the code...

 

ur car is just broken, just trade cars with me mine works fine and i guess i'll have to take ur car then if i have to

 

turned out to a P0301...

cyl 1 misfired...

i erased the code. ill see if it comes back. i drove it aorund the block and it was fine. light came on last night when i cold started it and drove it like immediatly.

drew u couldnt handle my car..

 

give it to me for a day ;]

and the codes either from being cold or a bad spark plug. get the new autolites for the lnf

 

OMG ENGINE LIGHT! PANIC!

 

z]steve u panic over nothin. U really should just let the car warm up for like 4 mins before u driove it

 

lol. i have had teh car 3 months fool!

and im not getting any aftermarket plugs for the car. dont need them.

i always do let my car warm up. just last night i didnt. bc it was 1 in the morning. i had to sleep for work today at 630

 

the plugs on the lnf are supposed to go out really fast on them...how many miles on the car? but its just that the car was cold not else unless it comes back

 

My plugs are still good at almost 15k....he only has like 4.5k miles.

 

just broke 5K last night.

plugs DO NOT go bad that quickly.

 

just wat i read here. something about the plugs and coils going back fast on them cuz its direct injected

 

nope. lol.

 

Some are burning up plugs because of hard driving on tunes that have a fairly lean A/F mixture and a lot of timing. Revhigh burnt a set out in less than 5k miles on his tune.

 

Well if it's misfires then the first thing you must look at are bad plugs and coils.

Did you ever post what Code is being set off.

Cause look at the CEL post that tells you what each light is for.

P0301- Socal Resident Failure. Move to Norcal then reset code. Should be fine.

 

ya thats wat i thought i knew some1 went threw some hella fast.

 

term i dynoed with the tune. my AFR is 12.5 across the board.

i threw a p0301. cyl 1 misfire.

so the next day and no problems still

 

then u got notn to worry about

 

probley a misfire did you let it warm up?

 

Good point. Or maybe a NLS?
