i think it is due to low voltage; atleast thats what the code said at the dealership!
I have a cat delete with a manual fix!
I was ok for 5k plus until now

 

Don't event know where to start chewing on this one, try the battery. (disconnect-reconnect) It shut mine off many times after I did that, and make sure a connector didn't come loose. Good luck, keep us posted.

 

done that 100+ times already and it comes back

 

Someone else on here has the answer, COME on and put in your 2c! anyone else with the CEL issue? Brake pads worn? oil too low? someone pitch in. I am lost on this one, and will back out. (will check back to see what you found the problem to be though!, good luck)

 

I hope help is on the way before she is gone

 

here is one more idea, when my MAF went bad, I had a low voltage reading also. they have to plug it in, and look at a "different" screen, I think they had to look at the MUD? sensor, which told what altitude the MAF was reading, mine was reading below sea level. (I wasn't). Have them check the MAF sensor. did you re-oil the airfilter? get an oily airfilter? just an idea, and actually that was when my CEL came on when I didn't install a new part. If I am right, you owe me a starbucks!

I say check the MAF sensor. (you didn't post it, but I sure to God hope you still have one on your car!) Or this is 2 minutes of my life I wont get back! Or it will come on within 3-5 miles after you drive it.

 

I will try this in the morning! I will also take it to the dealer tuesday to check the reading!

 

mmmmmmmmmmmmm Starbucks

 

+1. IMO, the only thing the old M5 had over the Evo was luxury, which i personally dont really care about.

good luck to the thread starter; may you finally get the car u truly desire to drive

 

lol i hate posts like this when EVO owners think they OWN the ****. M5 is a totally different machine. run that thing on the roll and see what it does 2 u.

 

Well guys I think I will venture over to the dark side for a while!
Since I like the newer M5 and it is a little more than I want to pay for a car right now, I think I will check out the 06 STI!
Dealer is giving me $24500 for my 04 SSL BBY with 21556 miles.
In total stock shape

 

Good luck on the dark-side. Do you owe me a Coffee? or is it now Subies problem? Good luck none the less, let us know how you like it.

 

I dont owe you anything because it came on less than 5 miles later!
However I thank you for all your help and I would be more than happy to send you $20 since you are a good member who tried your best to help me
It probably wont be subbies problem since part of the deal was to take the car to mitsu after the teardown to service it under warranty and give up all the freebies before I hand it over!
Thanks for your help bro! I will be in INDY for some training soon maybe then I can buy you a Coffee! I used to live in Heartland Crossing (then a new subd)

 

You dont owe me anything, look at my previous post, I said it was the MAF, or it would come back on in 4-6 miles! come down for the Winged Warrior Deal in INDY, June. you will be welcome with a subie or anything. again, good luck! Look me up when you come down.

 

will do no problem
