Cel light is blinking!
I have test pipes and that's about it, I know test pipes can cause the light to go on but mine Is blinking! Idk if its cuz of the 10 degree wearher or what do you guys think? What should I check or change if its a misfire?
|
Blinking is usually indicative of a emissions code. I bet its a misfire or O2 code. You will have to get it read to see exactly what it is.
|
I'm at the dealership right now and they charged me 125 to get it checked out cuz I'm 2 months out of warranty even tho I only have 32 thousand miles smh, are they going to say anything because I have test pipes on?

True, what could be causes a misfire and how much is that usually to fix?
|
Its possible to throw this code when cold starting the engine, I have seen it on mine. Although in this case I would assume its from your test pipes messing up your 02 readings and causing it.
|
Wow, $125 is painful. I bought a decent code reader for $100...
|
I should of done that, would getting a tune get ride of the misfire since I have test pipes on?

Alright the dealership told me that when I got the test pipes installed the gasket was ripped and there Is a leak, they said that if the crap from the gasket was sucked back into the engine then I'm f*ed, what are the chances of it getting sucked back into the engine and I said dont fix it ill get my shop replace the gasket, and should that fix the problem, and how bad is it to drive it right now with the hole in the gasket?

Get yourself some Z1 gaskets, tell them you want the Black Friday price ($30) |
if the engine runs and sounds fine (the way it did before) does that mean nothing did get sucked up? and where could i go to get the gaskets installed at a good price, but where they will do it right? I am located on long island ny if anyone knows a good place!
|
and will the Z1 gaskets fit on my resonated megan racing downpipes?

And honestly, CEL BLINKING, that's a first, mine just used to stay on |
Yea that's why I got scared cuz blinking means a misfire, but now the computer is reset, I still have the leak but until I get this fixed is it safe to drive?
