Cel light on - high exhaust gas temp

[ed-209]

One for the guru's..

 

Driving along happy doing 60-70 on motorway. pull out to overtake.

Sitting in fourth gear. start to overtake..cel light comes on. car goes into limp home mode.

Strong smell of fuel.. Pull off motorway. Plug into OBD code is for high exhaust gas temp.

quick check of sensor to make sure wires are okay. Reset code.. car then fine again.

drove for about 20miles at speeds from 50-just above 70 at boost still fine.

drive home still fine. 

So far the car has had(engine wise) Fuel pump, decat 2 of 3 (uppipe still intact), Blitz Exhaust,Pipercross induction kit with cold air feed,

intercooler hose , something to do with the boost(will ask john later sure he said bleed valve or

something like that)

Any idea's or is it time for a full remap in which case sould I get rid of the last cat and up

the injectors ect first.

Cheers

Ed

A remap sounds like a good idea[]

Decat the uppipe and then get it mapped ed. Your injectors will cope fine, mine are.
