Urgent!! Beeping..?!
Hey guys..
I have an Injen SRI with a K&N cone filter, and a B&M Shift plus as my engine mods. After installing the Shift Plus, I began to notice a slight beeping coming from the engine. No big deal. I heard the injectors were loud in these things.. I've had this in for over a month. No issues. But then today it was a bit louder and more frequent. I drove to Cleveland and on the way back this happened. Is one of my injectors bad or something? It goes *ba-deep deep deep, ba-deep deep deep* lol. Weird. I don't want to have something blow up or anything.. So please help!!
Thanks!

There IS a CEL, but it didn't start until I was almost done with my 500 miles trip. That's what confused me. I've had the Shift Plus installed for over a month and no issues at all. So I don't know if it's that or what? A beeping is only mildly annoying and a CEL is what it is. But I just don't want something to blow up or something.. lol. How do you receive the codes to know what the CEL is?

it could be a ton of things actually... as far as mechanical noises it could be a pully or something, or it could be a fan, ither the AC one from inside ur cabin or ur big one. there actually a good amount it could be now that i think of it. But the way u described it i would think mechanical not electrical problem.

It couldn't be a pulley or a fan because it doesn't speed up or slow down depending on RPM's.. It's steady.. I heard the injectors are just loud on these cars.. The engine still runs and drives perfectly.. There's just a CEL and a beeping.. lol.
Absolutely. It sounded like it was comming from the injectors. lol.

go find the code lol, then we can help.
the injectors arnt tht loud. i mean u can hear them click. but its a pretty uniform sound. The sound should always be the same, not switch a month ago.
the new SS/TCs have crazy loud direct injection.

You can hear your injectors? I guess I need to have my ears checked.

Random question here..
I did 2 things just recently. Replaced the filter and changed the seats. The filter was the stock Injen one on my Injen intake. I replaced it with a K&N Extreme Flow one. The KN is obviously oiled. The Injen one is dry I believe. Would that happen to throw a code? I replaced it a week ago. OR, I replaced the seats with Recaros just yesterday, conveniently one hour before this started going off. The Service Airbag waring message came on the dash, but would it eventually throw a CEL? Not actually BEING a check ENGINE, but just a check CAR light? Because usually if the CEL is on, the car runs like ass.. But it's running great.. Those are the only two things I can think of.. The noise is actually irrelevant to the CEL it's self in this case..?

You are probably hearing a warning beep for the airbags.
Others who have domes the swap could give more input. Ive never seen it happen before but Ive also never replaced seats without replacing the airbag sensors when the car had them

That's it then. The noise I'm hearing under-hood is actually the same noise as it's been then, I was just paranoid about it with the CEL.. lol. Yeah, I was gonna do the sensor swap here soon.. I'll keep you guys updated on the situation..

I was at work last night. I couldn't go to the store. I still don't know, but this makes all the sense in the world. Because when I installed the Recaros at the place I bought them from, the Service Airbag warning message came on. I figured it would because of the sensor issue. But no CEL. Then about an hour later the CEL randomly came on. So the CEL probably activated after so long of not "fixing the issue", so it would alert me more. Just the ECU's way of saying "Fix the seat you ******* idiot." So just like the ECU was used to the plug being in, with it out, it got all confused. Plus, aside from being dangerous without airbags, I would doubt the **** would pass inspection.. haha

Well.. I removed the under-seat sensor from my stock seat and plugged everything in under the Recaro. Then when I turned the car on the following time, the warning light blinked a few times then turned off, followed by no warning message. So we'll see today, but that seemed to fix it.. Now I just have to pull up on the Recaro fabric and stuff that sensor pad under there.. So the CEL is off. I guess it was just the same noise as always, but the CEL made it seem worse..
