air intake question

Post by APZ-312 »

I just finished fitting in the air intake.. turned the car on and the engine light stays on (top light on the left hand side of dial).

Idling is a bit weird so i thought i'd take it ofr a test drive.. works beautifully.. sounds great.. but the light still stays on??

*confused*

something i missed to do or should do?

GR or GPX??

If it's a GR make sure the cable connected to the AFM is in there properly.

Also, don't drive it if you can help it until you get this sorted... the engine warning light isn't a warning light for no reason.

Check the error codes, http://www.ftowa.com/html/workshop/workshopart07.html

its a GR..

mmm.. well the car is garaged.. i guess i'll have to take off the piping and put the old back in until i can get everything sorted..

*sigh*

i actually missed the smaller breather filter.. so once i do that.. it should narrow down my prob a little more.. lol unless that was the prob in the first place.. *stupid* :oops:
