People with HFC's: Did you throw a CEL after install

UFreefer · 04-23-2010, 09:52 PM

Yes or No

Zsteve · 04-23-2010, 10:08 PM

erz hfc no cel yet and I out some steel wool in.

I did a day after... but it was an installation error... the driver's side o2 wasn't tightened. Took care of that, cleared the code, and now I'm CEL-free.

I have the ERZ HFCs on my 2010 G37xS sedan.

Might help if you specify which HFC. Some have extended O2 ports. Some don't. And that might make a difference as far as CELs go.

i had bercs and had a cel from day one. my FI was good for about 5000km then got a CEL. in FI defence he had not shipped out the non foulers with mine and I had them on the shelf when the CEL light came on as of today 40,000 km no CEL.

Zsteve and Efuseakay, do you guys have the extenders on?

efuseakay · 04-24-2010, 07:08 AM

Yup! Once the o2 was tightened.... No CEL!

CBRich · 04-24-2010, 07:56 AM

Can the test pipe boys get on? ERZ RTP, no CEL.

I'm going with ERZ's with the extenders, I figure I could get angled defoulers if I need them

Your referring to the shorter one's that are included not the optional angled one's, right?

Without an extender, where can you stuff the steel wool?
