im getting codes from mine too fromt he stillens bank 1 and bank 2 i talked to several people all that is that its sensing like the air isnt clean w.e. im still looking for a solution i however refuse to take it to the dealer all they will tell me is that its my fault and charge me 70$+ for labor to find that out.

 

for the 78th time, the codes i am getting are not from the sensors in the HFC, but from the sensors in the header. the sensor was damaged because of the extreme force it took to unbolt my stock converters. the Berk HFC are plug and play, even my mechanic said how easy the job was once my old converters were out..

 

Good luck Mark,,, I hope your right, it sounds like they should take care of this since it is upstream of the cats,, let us know asap!!!

 

What are you expecting the dealer to do that your own mechanic won't? If you expect them to cover the damaged sensor under warranty, there's a 99% chance they won't they were damaged when the stock converters were removed.

If you, or your mechanic, damage parts of your car when removing it to install other stuff, that's not covered under the OEM warranty.

Even if the sensor wasn't damaged during removal, it's likely they have a strong argument to deny your warranty claim. As long as you have those aftermarket HFCs on the car, Infiniti Corporate will have no problem backing the dealer if the dealer denies your warranty claim.

 

bump...whats the update?

 

took the car to infiniti this morning, told them i had the HFC installed 2-3 months ago, and that the CEL recently came on because of the sensor in the header. they confirmed that it was in fact the sensor in the header, so they replaced it free of charge under warranty


.......so now i'm just enjoying the intoxicating new sound my exhaust makes

 

Good job man. I was watching this tread carefull as I'm looking for HFC's myself.

 

I just found this thread. Is there any way we could get sound clips from both inside and outside of the car at various throttle positions?

What I'm looking for is a sound similar to the G35 coupe/FX35. Thanks!

 

I had these installed a week ago. The sound under 3500 RPM's sounds good pretty close to a coupe but once you go over that or go WOTthe exhaust rattles, I think the tips make noise. I know our system stock does this but the HFC's make more noticeable..

 

I just placed my order last night, can't wait

 

Did you get your yet??

 

Am I taking a risk getting HFC's when I live in Cali?

 

u wont pass the smog test, but if magnaflow makes hfc for us...then those will pass but for nnow...u wont pass smog...unless u know anyone that can hook u up, which im sure someone on the forum knows someone in cali to do it. you pay a bit extra to the guy and he'll pass
i give the guy like 20-30 bux and he'll pass me lol
make sure its ghetto place that can pass smog lmao
not all fancy and ****

 

Mark: Have you get rid of the code yet?
