If you search for "exhaust system problem" you will get a few threads. It's a code that comes up sometimes, from what I've read it's a software bug and nothing is wrong most of the time. They supposedly have an update to cure it, I just haven't had time to get to the stealership.
I would imagine people who sold thier SI are no longer frequenting this forum to answer your question.
I think you would get the best price if you sell it as a private seller. It will take time, effort and a little luck. But that's your best bet if you're not in a hurry. List it at nearly top...
In my opinion disconnecting the battery would not cause that type of drop in MPG. The PCM has "adaptives" which effect that but I really don't think it could make that much difference.
I've reset a trouble code for the "exhaust sytem problem" a few times by disconnecting the battery with no...
Thanks, I love the JL. The main reason I bought the SI was to keep miles off of it and of course for the MPG. I need to look into autocross and see what that's all about.
No I didnt' lose any settings in the radio. I left it disconnected for about a minute and pressed the brake pedal which runs any residual voltage to ground through the brake light curcuit.
When you first reconnect the battery dont be alarmed by the lights on the dash. It will say "system...
Here's my solution to keeping that spark. I'll drive the SI for a while, then switch it up to the jeep. When I get back in the honda it feels like a rocket ship!
Check for a nail or stone in your tread causing the sound when it slaps the pavement.
Just thought, easy to check. With my Rubicon I can hear it when I pick up a stone.
My SI gets a pebble in between the rotor and dust shield often. It causes a condition similar to what you are describing. I park it, turn the wheel fully to gain access to the shield, then work it and bang on it to get the rock to drop out. Sometimes they will work themselves out soon after...
I always fill to full when getting gas and usually get the code when I'm down to about a quarter tank.
I've started carrying around a 10mm to reset it next time. lol
I was in a very similar boat except I didn't trade in my gas guzzler. My other vehicle is a 18 JL JEEP Rubicon. With 35s it gets about 14 mpg and is a beating driving in Dallas highway traffic. Plus I travel a lot with work (like to other states) which I prefer to drive.
So long story short, I'm...
I'm a '19 SI Coupe chiming in. I have gotten this message on the dash a few times. It's always at start up when I have less than a half of a tank of gas. No driving charactristic changes or indications other than the message/CEL.
I've just reset via battery disconnect every time. Haven't had...
okay...
The jack lifts the car in order to remove tire
The socket and breaker bar are used to losen the lug nuts
The air compressor is used to inflate flat tires
They are all tools to help you if you get a flat tire.
You should utube "changing a tire".
Well you could also use them to remove the damaged tire and bring the tire to the tire shop instead of getting a tow truck or road side repair.
Pull over- call buddy- jack up- remove tire-buddy arrives- takes you and tire to shop- return to car- install- drive off.
Cool! I'm happy to share. It took like 10 mins. If you can see the razor knife in the pic I would recommend it. You can extend the blade to do long cuts.
Now I just throw my full size spare in the trunk for long trips.
