hi i searched around on the forum and was wondering why my ses light came on . only mod was a sri fujita and its been on there for a couple thousand miles now. went to get it scanned code said running too lean? could it be the intake. i even cleaned the maf sensor . havent taken it to the dealer yet though. what else can i do thanks. oh i also reset the ecu and it was off like for a couple hundred miles then came back on. also i checked the gas cap and made sure it was tight? any other possible suggestions would be helpful !

 

Mileage on the car? Could be O2 sensors also.

 

oil change?

 

oil change really??? It comes on for maintenance things too?

I have one that goes and comes daily.. I know its because of my exhaust leak though.. Im missing two bolts that tighten down my cats.

 

mileage is 21600. got it used only one owner previous. umm. just changed the oil myself also. hmm maybe the o2 sensors are they on the cats ? just wondering ima noob to this whole v6 thing haha so used to 4cylinders.

 

what was the actual code number? could have been primary o2 sensor on either bank detecting a lean condition. the light will not come for maintenance intervals.

 

when i had my pop charger on it caused it to lean out so i took it off for now...waiting to have my computer flashed by a tuner....that probably is what it is...mine didnt go off til i went wot then it sent the code it was fine until then...

 

P0171 and P0174 where are the o2 sensors on the g? and the ses is our check engine light ?

 

02 sensors are on the cats. right in the middle of them

 

ic thanks again everyone i dunno if i should take it to the dealer ? not really looking forward to them saying its because of the intake or what not its under warranty and stuff. also under low acceleration i hear a like rattle is that the transmission sounds like some metal clanging anyone else experience this. sorry to plague the boards with these ocds i have hahaha!

 

As someone said, the SES light is actually a 'check engine' light, or does it merely tell you that a service is due?

 

I need to know this too.

On the battery start up there is no other "check engine" light.. So I'm assuming that the service engine soon is the check engine.

I also get a loud rattle of metal at low rpms/ idle.. That rattle really aggravates me.

 

ive seen that rattle problem here on the forums with other owners. yeah thats what i think the ses is our version of a cel.

 

oh yah forgot to put that the car is a 06 coupe. 6spd.

 

any other suggestions?
