Shouldn't you go to the dealer and make sure it isn't serious instead of a shade tree mechanic working on it

Merry Christmas!

Hope it doesn't come back

It will. Milage doesn't matter with warning lights like CELs and SESs. It's heat cycles. Usually 3 complete heat cycles is a complete rescan period.

Easy enough to remove the cats and inspect for obvious signs of damage.

Chinook wind melted all our snow/ice so took this opportunity to replace a back up light that burned out a week ago. Got to once again cut through layers of dynamat and mastic tape over the screw access holes.

Had a dusting of snow, took it out for some hooning to test my new VDC kill switch. It was fun.

True freedom ha ha. Before you had to slide backwards or totally lose control with VDC off to activate the Yaw off haha.

Do you guys know if anyone has tried using the factory VDC button with maybe a relay wired to factory stuff to actuate the kill switch? Basically just making the factory switch function as a 100% kill switch.

I mean it's pretty simple. Wire for the Yaw sensor goes in the active circuit where the switch is the VDC button clicked off. It's way more fun pressing the big red button in the cubby.

Yesterday,

During the past few month, I've had an intermittent OBD II code P0304, the # 4 cylinder was misfiring. I removed and replaced the coil, while I was at it I decided to go ahead and replaced the O-rings on the left and right bank camshaft position sensors. I should have replaced them a while back when I sealed the vale covers. The valve covers are still oil leak free after a year or more.
