I put on the Tanabe SHM exhaust and I am getting a passenger side catalytic code.Could the exhaust cause this malfunction?Should I try and replace the O2 sensors since the car has 68k on it?Has anyone else had this problem????

 

i don't think the exhaust would cause that problem. maybe something is loose, for example the o2 sensor?

 

The car was low on gas too.The fuel light came on 15-20 mins later?I really am hoping its the O2' mor ethan the cats.I see that they are still under warranty though, which is always a good thing!

 

The o2 sensors are before and after the cat. This exhaust doesn't mess with the o2s

 

I will not be able to take the car to the dealer with the exhaust on, right?I am sure they will try to link the exhaust ,k&n filter and the dubs to the bad cats.I am going to go get a better description of what the actual code is.I saw in my warranty book that the emission parts are covered for 72 months or 70k.It's just going to suck to take everything back off and put back on again.

 

You are right,

Would probably be less expensive to deal with the cost than go through the hassle of removing everything, getting it fixed, and then getting it all put back on.

Try clearing the code and resetting your car - see if it comes back on.

i have the tanabe on my car... no CEL and i've had it for about 6 months now on the car

 

if it's low on gas, it could be the gas mines and such. put in full gas and some techron and see if ithat helps.

 

whats a gas mine?

 

I was going to ask the same thing

 

cleared it and put in a full tank.No cel as of yet??
