Gumberculies, 2016 Subaru BRZ, 23,xxx, 6030XX, Been At the Dealership for 3 days (Sellers Subaru), Macomb, Michigan

Had the P000B fault code come on with the CEL and SL. This was also accompanied by the occasional rough idle/idle hunting and would extrememly rarely stall when pushing the clutch in.

This started happening about 6 days after I had installed my JDL UEL catless header. still not sure if that's why I'm experiencing this issue.

Got my BRZ back after a month of waiting. Had the stock header reinstalled and the only thing done to the car is a catback exhaust. 2 weeks after getting it back I had a P000B fault code again. Took it in and they diagnosed one of the OCVs as being bad. So they replaced it right there. Another 2 weeks later (today), the same issue is back.
