19 FEB. 2020 · Today we’ll be looking at DTC P2422, which indicates that the evaporative emissions canister vent valve is obstructed. The particular vehicle we were working on was a 2008 Honda Accord, and a Honda technical service bulletin, or TSB was a big help to point us in the right direction with solving this code.
12 FEB. 2020 · One of our long-time company writers Gary Goms told had been called to a local shop to lend his expertise and tools on a 2012 Chevy Impala with the flex-fuel, 3.6L GDI, or gasoline direct injection engine. There was an intermittent loss of power complaint that the shop couldn’t figure out.
28 ENE. 2020 · This TSB was released by General Motors, covering most of their large SUV’s and vans that have been produced from 2002 and up. The related DTCs that a technician may find are P0420, Catalyst Efficiency Below Threshold, and/or P0430, which is the same thing, Catalyst Efficiency Below Threshold, just for bank 2. Technicians are seeing these codes on low mileage vehicles, or vehicles that have recently had the catalytic converter replaced.
13 ENE. 2020 · The complete symptom is a cold-start misfire or a rough idle concern. Upon inspection, the technician will find medium to high misfire counts and the symptom always occurs on one or two cylinders and goes away when the engine warms up. Now, a misfire or rough idle isn’t that uncommon in the grand scheme of things, but in this case it’s what’s causing them that’s unusual.
23 DIC. 2019 · I was looking through some TSB’s and realized when we did the original P0172 podcast, I completely forgot about one possible cause of the problem that has actually been fairly common for a long time. And in reality, it’s so simple and so basic, that it could be easy to overlook. Excess fuel in the engine oil causes DTC P0172 to set, and the solution is an oil and filter change.

It had an intermittent problem. Sometimes it ran great, but sometimes it would idle high and when you would press on the accelerator, nothing would happen.
25 NOV. 2019 · A customer brought in a 2007 Subaru Legacy with the 2.5L 4-cylinder EJ25 engine. The owner complained of an engine vibration. From the initial description, it sounded like a pretty typical misfire issue. It turns out that about six months prior, the customer had the vehicle at another shop and the engine was overhauled. It was immediately after that the problem began.
7 NOV. 2019 · A customer brought in a 2004 BMW X5 with the well-known M54 engine. The complaint was that the engine was running unusually rough and the check engine light was on. A DTC scan revealed DTC P0304, cylinder misfire cylinder 4.
