To get some help around here, list your cars model and year at least.
And if you have a code reader to clear the fault, how about telling us what the fault code is?

I answered you on other thread, you have a car that can be mapped and you should get it mapped after fitting a decat pipe anyway, so look on hear and find who is close to you and get the cel switched off or mapped out.

You're c.45miles north of API in Harbury, Lea. Spa - one of the most respected Subaru specialists in the country.

API use Pat Herborn - one of the most respected mappers. I think they map on Wednesdays...
