Stock pops and bangs

[Andrew25]

I tried searching the forum for this but couldn’t find an answer. When I first tried the Emira, track mode would give me pops and bangs, which is something that made me fall in love with the car. Now that I reached 1600km, I only slightly tried track mode for 1 minute, and sport mode for 5 minutes. None of them gave me pops and bangs. Is it normal? I have the warning light on the dashboard, don’t known if that might have something to do with it. Thanks!

Hey, no worries.

I did have the P2270 (lean code) come up after I completely messed up a gear change, but that disappeared when the car was restarted, and that was just a one off. So far the spacer has done it job, and I haven't had to mess around with the spacer thickness. I only use one spacer on the 2nd sensor, as the ECU is reading the difference between the 1st and 2nd.

It's worth trying the spacer, as it's only a 2min easy fit.

Thanks for the response, I will try that, spacer on just the second sensor. Will try to pickup a better OBD reader too, I’m told if you use the AMG A45 configuration you can get some special codes that the generic OBD readers don’t see.

If I clear codes after running for a while, it runs fine for the rest of the drive/day, but next day it will be back to LC not working again. I’m guessing it might be out of spec on startup when the cat is cold.
