Edit: SOLD I'm selling my Milltek Valve Controller for the i4 Emira. Only had it installed for around 2k miles. Comes with both controllers, nothing is wrong with it. $250 OBO, free shipping. Please DM if interested.

Hey everyone, I have an i4 Emira and am thinking about taking the car to a tuner. I've read up a little bit about the JB4 and some other mods people have done, but I'm really not all that knowledgeable about tuning in general (so be easy on me). The biggest things I want to try to address on...

@HankRS225 So, I believe I just finally resolved this issue with my Emira and wanted to share. I've attached 3 photos to this post. The one with the yellow arrow shows the issue, and is pointing to a spring-loaded disc in the exhaust valve actuator assembly. It is very hard to get great photos...

I found the easier way to verify the buttons is to do the testing with the bottom panel off. You can look up and into the valve and clearly see the mechanism rotate. When you press #1 it rotates fully counterclockwise and gets loud, then press #2 and it rotates maybe 1/4-1/2 turn clockwise, and...

I have the exact same error codes. The CEL comes on if I let the car do the shifting during a hard acceleration and I can usually avoid it by just driving the car in manual mode. However, my CEL goes away after a few days if I drive it less aggressively/manually. I've taken it to the dealer and...

I haven't touched the exhaust or the controller. I've pulled power from the battery before, but that's it.

I've got both of these codes right now and can't find a consistent definition for the issue. Taking it in next week but curious if anyone's run into this before and what the resolution was.

It wasn't so much about the temps, but early spring here is super wonky. It'll be in the 30s at night and early morning, then get like mid-80's during the day. But, I daily the car and will continue to do so in winter (expect when snow is on the ground), and some of the roads I drive on are less...

EDIT: Sold I just got my tires swapped out and now have a set of Sport Cup 2s (with 800 miles on them) looking for a new home. They are from the i4 Emira, so sizes are 245/35 ZR20 and 295/30 ZR20. They've only been used for street driving, so they are in pretty decent shape. They retail new...

If anyone is looking for a US vendor that isn't a total ripoff, I just got mine from AWD Motorsports via eBay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/194365645355 https://www.ebay.com/itm/196051481360 Just installed them today and they are a perfect fit. Drove about 20 miles so far and they are so much nicer...

I stand corrected. A friend of mine rode in the car and immediately asked why fake engine noise was being pumped into the cabin. I snipped the wire and drove it again and wow, what a difference. It's like an entirely different car. Gonna pay attention to the sound system more tomorrow and see if...
