IT HAPPENED TO ME!!

Well, last week I added GMPP exhaust and JBA Cats to my car that along with the Roto-Fab intake are the only mods that I have related to the engine (I also have a Barton Shifter, 4.10 Gears, and some Pfadt sways and Hotckiss max brace). The car ran great, seemes like a lot more power, no check engine light.

So I went to start it yesterday and the DIC said "NO OIL PRESSURE"!! WTH?? Tried it again, same thing, so I called to have it towed to the dealer. What could have happened? Will it be covered under warranty? What do you guys think??

Thanks!

:(

Don't let them push you around, they will probably try.

CAI would not have anything that could effect that. I would say the CATS should not either but changing the CATS I was warned on by Ted would let GM void your warranty.

The gauge also read zero, how would they know the rear end has been changed?

You'll be fine. They should change out the sensor and you'll be on your way unless your dealer is an ass..

This, get the TSB number and give it to your service department or tell them about it and they can look it up.

I found a PIP4158C on it--is there also a TSB? I did let the dealer know the number--I am hoping I don't get any pushback from the dealer with the hi-flo cats and CAI...
