Glenn Thats it. As I said earlier CAI with out the reducer spells codes unless you have a tune.

 

 

Maybe the MAF sensor went back in the wrong direction, if all you did was CAI doesn't make sense

 

Silver Are you reading any of our responses...

 

Yes me and my mechanic r both reading it

 

My wife got the cai for me for christmas

 

You always have to have your tune updated for mods - incl virtually all CAI's - like Glenn & Jazzman said. They let in more air, which makes your A/F ratio run lean. Hence the "lean" code.

Running lean on these modern engines = piston failure

 

I have a tuner and I have a tune put in my car which tune should I need

 

where is your tune from? Was it one that was installed in your tuner when you bought it?
If so I would call Steeda or one of the other tuners out there and get a tune that matches your intake. Don't drive your car to much while its throwing that code. Put your stock intake back on and reinstall your stock tune

 

yea I was just running up my post count

 

Yes ... if you are running the Steeda CAI ... you will definitely need a tune or a revision.

If you didn't purchase from us ... we can write you a tune for $99.00 or enroll you in our tunes for life for $150.00.

Let me know ... you can send me an email to tim@steeda.com & we can get you squared away with a tune!

Best Regards,

TJ

 

I run an SCT tuner from bama with bama tunes

 

I guess I would call them and have them go over the tune file with you. They may have clicked on something they shouldn't have. I had one of their tunes throwing a to rich code recently and they wanted me to data log. I didn't think I should have to do that. So I called them and insisted we go over the file. They found a problem with the tune and sent me a revised tune which seems to be alright now. They even said but sir that is the same tune we send out to many customers. Sad part is I went and had a diagnostic test done for 90 bucks thinking there was something wrong with my car. 90 bucks is a nice chunk of beer money.

 

My maxhanic never charges me to do a diagnostic test on my car but I've had this tune in for almost 7 months noe

 

I order all my tunes from american muscle

 

swap o2 sensors to the opp side and see if the code returns as mentioned already I think. If it does then you know its most likely the sensor. If you get the same code that is.

 

Funny story my wife was driving it to the for dealership and the check engine light went off when she hit a bump

 

well don't hit any more bumps

 

You solved it again... No more Bumps and no more CAI!!! Done..

 

wooooohooooooooo

The suggestion to go back to stock was to see if the code went away. But hells yea no more bumps is where its at
