just wanted to see if anyone else has had this issue I came across a few post about it but no clear answer. my 09 ralliart had a service light but no cel runs fine accept in 2nd gear it shudders a little and bounces at 2k rpm and 5k rpm but drives smoothly after that. the shop cleared the p180c code but couldn't find anything in regards of the code accept the whole "clutch pressure cut spool sticking" any information regarding this is appreciated. I have a cold air intake and a upgraded exhaust with no cats. exhaust was upgraded to a 3". no flash or any other mods.

 

With the changes you've made to the intake and exhaust I would recommend getting a tune to make sure your A/F ratios are good as well as maximizing your power output.

 

do you think the A/F ratio may be causing that light? with my mods I do not have a tune.

 

It's possible, but either way I would recommend getting a tune at some point. If you're considering more mods in the near future, then do those first and get the tune after you're done modding to maximize the benefits.
