02 sensor
Have a turbo kit installed on my 03 EX and it's running rough....mechanic says I need a new 02 sensor (both) and a new map sensor to fully diagnos the problem.
As I bought the car this way last June, I have no idea if this is accurate or not, and the parts and labor gonna run me $350. Then they say they will be able to tell me the problem, which could cost me god knows what. So my question is, with a turbo kit installed, would these parts be required to perform the diagnostics? Or are they not understanding how the turbo could be affecting their diagnosis? |
did you get your car tuned when you installed the turbo?
|
Car came with turbo installed and yes, it was tuned by a shop that specializes in turbos. Unfortunately the girl I bought the car from moved 1000 miles to where I am and I can't take the car there to check it out.
We don't have a turbo facility in town, so I took it to a highly respected shop in town. They say they can work on turbos, but this seems odd to me. |
Is the ECU throwing O2 sensor and MAP sensor codes? If so, you may be able to fix the problem yourself.
|
yes, that is what they are saying. Hearing you mention ECU, I believe she mentioned that she had the ECU flashed?
|
Can anyone elaborate on the possible effect the ECU could have on this?
|
Drive your car to an auto parts store where they will pull the CEL codes with a scan tool. Post the codes.
