Oil catch can throwing off Stabili track?
Hey recently had an issue with my car, Service Stabilitrack is coming on and off.
I installed a catch can about 1700 miles ago. I brought the car to dealer they told me that it was throwing O2 sensor codes, one for low voltage? He said since they were throwing a P code out, it means that my car was running to lean and to rich which is causing the light to go off? Could my K & N intake be the cause of this as well if my intake is clogged up? (hoods pretty open it gets dirty in my engine bay). They fixed the one sensor under warranty to see if it would stop throwing the code picked the car up 5 minutes later the light went back on. Theyre going to change the 2nd o2 sensor when i drop it back off in the end of the week. My entire dash lights up w service stabilitrack warning and my ABS light, traction control lights all go on. |

Might want to check your connection on your MAF line. Where you plugged into your new K&N.

Bad or loose plug wire will cause same codes.

To answer your post's title it has zero to do with your catch can.

As above said, the catch can has nothing to do with your issue.
What kind of catch can? Make sure it is hooked up properly. Try cleaning the MAF, did you recently oil the K&N filter. As other said, check all connections. You have a differantissue causing this problem.

Nice of your dealer to be replacing those O2 sensors.
Don't know what part of New York you're in, but if it's a high traffic area I'm sure that K&N needs cleaned- oil sparingly. If you have cleaned it, catman is right- now clean your MAF. I believe multiple misfires can cause a Stabiltrack to light (and a dirty MAF can give you that), but have you had the car up on a lift or wheels off? A wheel sensor/ABS sensor line damage or new non-stock size tires (gotta maintain the same rolling circumference front and back) could also be the culprit. You'll figure it out. |

My dealer did my springs, and still warranty the car. What could be loose on the springs that might cause this? i hear a noise but it could be my exhaust banging on each other, i didnt fully finish it yet, i need to put a bracket and new exhaust clamps on it. ive had my aftermarket vossens and stock tires on for 5000 miles so i dont think thats the issue. it goes on and off all the time... I can imagine that my K&N Filter may be dirty but i only have 13,000 miles on my car in 3 years and prbo only about 9000 with the filter.... Ill do what i gotta do keep you guys filled in |

If they knocked a wheel speed sensor out of wack working on the springs, that will hose up your stabilitrack, and your abs.

I have heard that rumors that the K&N typhoon intake has caused this code.. Don't take my word for it it's just what I was told by others.
I myself had the P2097 code (post catalyst trim too rich bank 1) which means my car thought I was running rich on the driver side after the cats. The dealer said my trims looked good so I assumed it was a false reading due to my solo high flow cats or the K&N intake. After clearing the code it eventually came back during a long drive. Eventually I got a tune and had the rear 02's disabled so no more code. Check your fuel trims and maybe reset the code and put your stock intake back in and see what happens..

The dealer wouldn't do anything for me since I had aftermarket catalytic converters, even though I explained to them that the manufacturer claims no CEL to date. Either the dealer just didn't want to help, or solo performance is wrong about the no CEL. The cats were professionally installed and I even brought it back to see if it was done properly
