Hmmm, I vaguely remember reading about this a year or so ago (P0016-19), was a known problem on the 2013s at least, I think they even released a TSB on it, something about reflashing the ecu, not sure.

Regarding the dealer having to put 60-100 mi on it, is it to test out a fix they just did? I could see a scenario where installing a new mechanical component can need some time/cycling to verify if it does fix a problem, but 100 miles seems a bit much imho, but I'm no expert. I would talk to them and have them explain in detail what they are trying to do/see to at keep your mind at ease

Yeah that is what I read too about the ECU reflash. I mentioned it to them, but who knows what they are doing behind the scenes.

I've had an outback as a loaner. I've put over 500+ miles on it in the last couple of weeks. Gonna be 1000+ miles after this weekend. Lol.

Does anyone have a Nameless Axleback (muffled track pipe or muffled/nonmuffled track pipe) paired with an aftermarket catless header? If so, please let me know as I want an in-person sound impression of the exhaust setup!

For all you GoT fans !

Hey guys, just wanted to get some opinions and information on something:

I recently installed a the K&N Drop In Air Filter and started noticing that my car feels so much more sluggish than it was prior to the removal of the stock air filter. For example, every time I try to accelerate in any gear, it just feels SO much slower and unresponsive than it was prior to the installation. For reference, I'm currently running the OFT Stg 2 UEL Tune with the Tomei Uel Header installed--rest of my exhaust is stock. Should I try to retune the car with the Stg 2 UEL Map again?

Was the K&N filter brand new or did you just "service" it, ie clean and re-oil it? Its possible that some of the oil on that filter may have come off (got sucked in) and fouled your MAF sensor. If I were to guess, maybe get some MAF cleaner and give your MAF sensor a few good blasts (make sure its dry before you reinstall).

Good luck
