Valve spring recall is only on some 2013's. It's not related to this thankfully.

The recall is much more in-depth, replacing all of the valve springs which requires more or less disassembling the top of the head. The TSB for CEL only requires measuring the valve shim clearances. Not nearly as invasive.

(we went go carting awhile back in Niagara falls.

That's cool. My 2 year grandson loves the car. He's still in the back but gets really excited when I pick him up from daycare in it.

I had a problem with the HPFP and so I recently went back to stock. Stock catted header, stock tune. The dealership wouldn't do anything if I was modified, and I need the car to be dependable. They cleared the codes for the HPFP (I wish I had written them down) and they have not come back. But I also think they did nothing but drive it 50 miles.
I got the car back from the muffler shop 2 days ago and I haven't put 50 miles on it yet. I got p0420, P119F and P219A. The bad fuel mileage makes me think AF or O2 sensor or wiring. What else could it be? Fuel mileage, mostly city, low 20's |
