So I haven't posted yet about this, and it seems to be a slow recurring problem for one of the codes being thrown. Let me first start by saying that I'm not the most knowledgeable person with cars, but I know my fair share, looking to learn more.

I have a 2013 1SS LS3 with the mods listed at the bottom of this post. I've been throwing the P0030 code repeatedly for a while, and the P015D only recently (so I think). I have zero performance issues or misfiring at all, and I can clear the codes with my SCT X4 and eventually the P0030 will return over time (sometimes in the next few days, sometimes it takes months). It was my understanding that my base canned tune from SCT X4 removed/disabled the rear O2 sensors, but I still get these codes. I did have a spark plug wire touch a header and burn out on me, causing a misfire at one point, but that has sense been fixed and close cleared. Any thoughts as to why these are occurring?

I wrenched my own work, I did not pinch any wires or omit reconnecting any O2's. I did use the included O2 extensions on the cats which I've read can cause an issue.

Any input is greatly appreciated.

My mods: Stainless Works 1 7/8" LT headers, Stainless works 4" hi-flow cats, h-pipe delete, CAI air intake, and a base LS3 Camaro canned tune with my SCT X4.

I did have 2-4% more fuel on WOT in the tune, but I reverted back to the base canned tune. Please note, however, that this code has been thrown even WITH the base canned tune.

I read a bunch of threads just to try to give you a reply. Lol. As you said, the extensions seem like they can give some people issues. Could be the sensor itself. My suggestion would be to try unplugging and replugging (and maybe hitting the connections with some dielectric grease?), then maybe swapping the upstream sensors between the left and right sides. That would tell you if it's a sensor issue or an extension issue.

P015D sounds more like you need a proper tune / check and see if you can modify any settings like your downstream O2s in your canned tunes.

Thanks for the replies so far everyone! Since posting, I cleared my codes and just threw a CEL yesterday. Again there is no issue with how the car drives, no power loss or power cut in Wot, so I'm leaning towards the O2 sensors or extensions as I've read. I attached the most recent codes thrown taken 120 seconds before this post.

Sounds like you're hooked up. Good to see.

What ended up being the fix for this. I just installed SP Long Tubes with High Flow cats and ended up with the exact same to codes you have.
