Car: er34 rb25de neo auto

Situation : Engine light on cold start .... after 15 min of driving turn car off and on again ... light turns off

Problem car will most likey run rich when light is on and .... the light is on lol

Checked : head not making rude sounds (oil flow should be ok )

Engine oil pressure (dash guage) seems a bit high but nothng crazy

water temp (dash guage) normal

no misfire clunks or rude sounds

Runs fine after restart after about 15min driving

Pow wow : thinking possible o2 sensor or ecu water temp sensor (aparently theres 2 one for dashand another for ecu)

Has anyone had this before... the boss does not have a scanner but possibly have one lined up tomorrow afternoon ..... need to get falt code

Has anyone experinsed this before ? and what was the solution

Thanks everyone

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
