Asad Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Hi guys want some advice. I had fitted new stainless steel exhaust. Since then the engine warning light on the dash has come on. I have done the EML reset procedure as instructed in these forums. after doing reset i then restart the car and light has gone off.I can then drive the car with no EML showing until i turn the engine off again. Then if i restart the car at the 3rd time the EML lights up again. I only had Y pipe/Middle section/back box changed for stainless steel and kept the cats factory standard. The garage did also remove the rusty heatshields around the cats. To remove these heatshields from around the cats garage had to unplug the wire connectors on the CAT sensors then repluged the connectors after removing the rusty cat heatshields. only the rest of exhaust replaced from Y pipe back. Do you guys have any advice to fix this problem? any one else experiance similar problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dblock Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 did you read the code? There is a eml reset and a way to read the code (what is wrong with the car). Maybe they damaged them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asad Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 Thank you for your advice. Car is driving normal as before. just the EML light showing on dash. I will check to see if i can manage to read the error codes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will370z Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Its a right royal pain trying to count the flashes. I would recommend videoing it to help or post up the video and we can confirm the code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Zmanalex sells sensor spacers but as mentioned best to check the actual code first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveparkin Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Whereabouts are you? There are plenty of people on here who have code readers and would be prepared to help, I'm sure. If you're near Bournemouth, I've got one and can read it for you if its a UK car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZMANALEX Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 If your issue only started after the fitment of your exhaust then I would be looking at the sensors to make sure that they have been reconnected properly Providing that the sensor connection is good and the garage have not damaged your sensors and the code is related to the rear O2 sensor then these will fix your problem. In stock and good to go same/next day viewtopic.php?f=157&t=23979 Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
