Jb3 Service Question

PhiDeltBeers · 04-08-2010, 05:39 PM

I know, I know. Search. I've been having long cranks, so I'm guessing the whole HPFP virus has finally hit me at 25k miles. YES, I WILL be taking out my JB3 before taking the car in to have them look at it. My question is....will any codes thrown show the dealer that I've been tuned? I don't have a BT tool to look at or clear codes. Am I fine just taking the tune out and taking the car in?

I should add, I've only ever ran Map 3 with 91 octane and no other mods.

If you have only run Map3, the chances of throwing tuner codes is slim.

So I should get a BT scanner before taking to the dealer?

You can either purchase a BT, or drive to a local mechanic shop or tuner to have it scanned for codes and clear them (call and ask them first). Should cost around $60.

Cheers,
