I purchased an injen sri several weeks ago. After installation the car was running great, with no cel on the dash. After about 3 weeks (2 gas tank fill-ups) and roughly 400 miles after instal the cel came on. This particular intake is not suppose to throw the cel, has anyone else who purchased the same injen mr series been having any issues with it? The code that registered was p0101 which is a range/performance issue with the maf sensor. If so has anyone been able to eliminate the cel permanently, and how? I've taken the whole intake off and retightened everything, along with trying to reset/clear the cel with no success. There are no leaks anywhere on the intake not even on the maf sensor housing. And the maf sensor is spotless (not a spec of dirt on it, looks brand new), and has been cleaned. Still to no avail, cel came back on after about 15 miles of driving after clearing the code. Anyone got any more insight as to why the cel could still be set off? At this point I'm ready to contact injen to try and get their two cents on the situation. The intake should come with a limited lifetime warranty, but don't know if injen would swap it out for another. I understand that the code registering isn't hurting anything it's more the fact that I don't want to see that damn light on. Anyone's input would be greatly appreciated

 

Sorry i cant help you, i just wanted to say that i have this sri for now 4500km and no cel

 

MAF is seeing too much flow. Take a pic of the intake on the car and where the MAF is located on it.

 

The Short ram sits on top of driver side in the engine bay, located next to the battery. The maf sensor sits directly ontop of the intake tube

 

First I've been hearing of a cel with either injen was just getting ready to order mine too, guess I'll wait and see what comes of this

 

I'll keep you posted CB. Yea I researched this particular intake for weeks and ordered it for that reason, that it wasn't suppose to throw the cell

 

Okay, thanks bud good luck with it hopefully they help you out

 

Thanks again CB really hoping they do help me out, I mean I did drop enough money on it to where I should get some help. And thanks for the story cam good to know someone is running the same sri and not having any issues with it. Hopefully I get some answers and can throw another sri on soon. Paul any input is greatly appreciated

 

The thread is inconclusive! No understandable reason as to why the CEL was thrown multiple times.

Although I did manage to get the CEL to turn off and stay off after a very expensive part was installed. The Dezod Motorsports v2 green catted header. Car runs and sounds amazing and has over 500 miles with the injen sri intake and the green headers installed.

 

Damn that sucks was hoping for a answer from them as to why :l

 

Yea sorry cb no answer to my thread. I am happy to report that my mpg's went up from roughly 25/26 to about 30!!! Loving life

 

have you noticed that the intake is shaking a lot? ive heard that could be an issue too.. i know ive got the CAI from injen and ive had it on two cars and never blew CEL on either.

 

I just found that on my K&N after a year or two started throwing codes. I looked and the EVAP sensor had come undone (This is mounted to the intake via a screw. The sensor is behind the intake tube and to the right with several hoses coming out of it. This was getting kinked and throwing CEL's from time to time and would turn on, then turn off after driving for a while. I can only assume the hose was kinking and moving around.

check this out and see if this is the case. Also, make sure there are no leaks or kinks on the vacuum tube leading from the top of the engine to the intake tube.

Good Luck

 

i actually never attached the evap sensor to my intake, only because the screw stripped and could never get it off, so its loose right now, how much harm and i doing leaving it loose?

 

go figure my check engine light would come on this morning on the way to work, i just ziptied it until i got home so i could fix it then...i dont have anything that can get a stripped screw out, i dont know how it happened, but its in there way too tight
