Ok got the check engine light, went to autozone today. 2 codes came up: P2177 and P2179 They aren't even listed in the CEL codes on the mazda6tech site. On the scanner it said something about idle. I told the guy I have CAI and it said those codes are normal b/c of that. Am I okay here lol help?

If you search for the P2177 code here, you'll see that it's a new version of the same ol' too lean code associated with your intake. As for the P2179, that one I'm not sure on but I bet its related. What was the message associated with the code?

Ok did some research and i found out that P2177 is the new code for P0171 and P0174 lean codes.

But whats P2179????


Thanks

Well P2177 was scanned as BANK1 lean and P2179 as a BANK2 lean.....

I'd say they're both due to the CAI. What kind of intake is it anyway?

Mines a BOMZ Racing. It said something related to the car idling the guy was holding it as I wrote it down and just got a glimpse of it

I had a injen cai installed too. The first thing I ask the mechanic is "Can you install a CAI that will not result in the engine light coming on?". He said "Yes".

I drove the car for a week with no engine light and then it came on. I figured it was do to the air/fuel thingy. I think I am going to purchase that device from cp-e ( http://www.cp-e.com/2006.html) that will fix the code and adjust the air/fuel ratio.

I also noticed that the exhaust build up on the muffler increased too.

Yeah same here also the guy said if you want you can get it re-flashed so it never comes on again by the mazda dealership. Is this true?

Well i don't think so, but if it's true that would be cool..... But don't think.
