mschmidt Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 All, Threw a code this morning... when I get home, I plan to check it out via AP. Ironically, I have a service appt tomorrow to do a few minor things before the LGT is out of warranty (35.5k). Was thinking of un-marrying the AP to be safe, but will it erase this code? If it is a miss-fire I want it to be there since my idle is rough... may be an injector. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carter Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 I dont know anything about the AP, but divorce it and see what happens. Drive around a while if the CEL has gone away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spec B Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 What stage are you 1 or 2? If you are stage 2 with catless pipes once you unmarry, the cel will likely return after driving around a few miles. If you are stage 1, you can unmarry and not worry about a thing.

If you unmarry, you lose the code, if you leave it married, you lose the map and AP. Need forum help? Private Message legGTLT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qikslvr Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 +1. Pull the code before you take it in. Then if it doesn't come back, just tell the service dept. that you went to an autoparts store to check if it was a park and tow problem or if you could still drive it to the dealer. At least this way you know what the issue was and you can report it. Let's kick this pig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mschmidt Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 It was P0302... I'm stage 1. "if you leave it married, you lose the map and AP." Please elaborate. I didn't plan to un-marry the AP, can they tell I have it? Can they make my AP obsolete? Very concerned. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mschmidt Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 I know... bad injector, plug, coil pack something. I want them to fix it, but I hear they won't without the code. only 500 miles left with warranty. Looks like I should un-marry it? Help me out. I would love to leave it to have proof but if they mess with the ECU, they might make my AP obsolete? Help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilT Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Just check the code... your screwed either way. If you unmarry, you lose the code, if you leave it married, you lose the map and AP. cough:BS:cough If you have a CEL when you unmarry, it will still be there afterwards. Reset the CEL with the AP, then unmarry it, if that's what you want. Double Award Winning Legacy GT Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike What he is tyring to say is if you leave your AP married to the car and they just so happen to reflash your ECU your AP is gone. you will have to send it back to COBB along with some money for them to fix it. didnt know if you knew that or not. If you did dissregaurd, and if you didnt now you do. Your better off unmarrying it just to be on the safe side though. OTM. Sorry I didn't mean to start a war which mainly forum people is all about .

Tell the dealer you were on a vacation. It came up, you took it to a shop and they ran the code and cleared it for you. At least mention it and have it in writting in your warranty notes. Remember... Power train is 50k/6 years so this is a powertrain issue... right? Need forum help? Private Message legGTLT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mschmidt Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 I told them the Autozone douchebag cleared it. We will see what happens. I will get it in the notes if they don't do anything. I just hope they fix it now since I'm ready to go stage II. Car still ran strong, just the studder issue, huh. Are powertrain warranty is 50K/60? I have an 05?

BDII Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 yes. The powertrain warranty is: Powertrain Limited Warranty Powertrain coverage for all models is five years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. It covers the major powertrain components listed below:* Engine block and all internal parts Cylinder heads and valve train Oil pump, oil pan Timing belts or gears and covers Water pump Flywheel Intake manifold Oil seals and gaskets Turbocharger Assembly Transaxle case and internal parts Transaxle seals and gaskets Axle shafts and constant velocity joints (except boots)** Torque converter Electronic transmission control unit Transaxle seals and gaskets Propeller shaft Wheel bearings http://www.subaru.com/owners/warranty/index.jsp?year=2005 Need forum help?

mschmidt Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 Update: Dealer would not do a thing for the CEL. He assumed bad injector as well but there was no code to be found... wonder why... huh. He said they drove it and ran a diagnostic but it showed nothing. What should I do??? Keep the stock cal and hope it throws the code? I sure want to install my stage II parts but they may blame it on that. I can't even go back to stage 1 because I will just erase any code again? poop, any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
