My check engine light's been on for awhile now and limp mode has occurred at least twice now. I checked for error codes and came up with P0133, P0153, P2196, P2198. I know what the first two are and I'm pretty certain they were thrown as a result of the sensors being further from the engine due to the long tubes. Every list of error codes I've seen ends at P1900. Does anyone have a clue what the last two numbers mean and what threw them? Thanks for your help.

I think u can clear those trouble codes with your tuner???

p0133 o2 slow switch bank 1
p0153 o2 slow switch bank 2
p2196 o2 stuck rich bank 1
p2198 o2 stuck rich bank 2

should be u1900 not p1900 and thats for module communication error you can ignore that.. it generally happens during a progamming stays forever till cleared.
hope that helps

Yes, that's correct. I cleared the codes and reloaded the tune just prior to getting my car inspected today. I was told by the place doing the inspection that if the check engine light was on It'd fail inspection soI was sure to clear everything first. The manager asked me if I had modified something because my port caused his computer to reboot twice. He said it passed emissions on the third attempt.

you cleared codes and the light came back on? If so id probably say its wrong tune in vehicle..

Okay, at least now I know all four codes are O2 sensor related. My tuner will have to adjust my tune accordingly to tryand prevent these codes from surfacing again.I was more worried about the last two codes possibly being something more serious.

No, you misunderstood. The check engine light's been on for monthsand I knew it was probably due to the O2 sensors so I wasn't worried. Today was my first inspection of my '06 GTand I was worried about how the long tube headers would fare with the emissions test. When I called the place that wasscheduled to do the inspection, I was told the car would fail if there was a check engine light on. Since the light was indeed on, I cleared everything literally in the parking lot of the place just prior to inspection. That's when I pulled the four codes. After reloading the tune the light did NOT come back on. I am positive it will though since it's been doing it ever since I put the long tube headers on. It's not the headers fault. It's all in the tune. Supposedly there's a way to fix the problem and the last time I brought my car to the dynotuner, he said it should be okay. It isn't! I need to get it squared away because I don't like the check enginelight being on.

ok, makes sense.. any lights on, on my dash irritates me too even low fuel[:@]
