After some hard accelerations on the belt route the CEL came on. I pulled the numbers:
Current fault P2187: system too lean at idle bank 1
Pending fault P0441: Powertrain evaporative emission control system incorrect purge flow
Cars running great but I do notice that RPM's at idle go up and down about +/- 100 RPM's then the CEL comes on again.
recent history; 2 weeks ago I had a CTS Turbo catback installed to my APR downpipe (we had to cut and weld it to the down pipe. I love the sound of it). Since the new catback I have filled my tank twice with the usual 91 (Utah) octane. Toped up my oil with about 500 ml (it always seams to be down a bit at around 2000 ml after last change)
Ideas: A quick search of this forum came up with maybe an exhaust leak has slowly formed with the new catback. Bad gas. Over filled the tank (I'm very carful not to though). Can over filling the oil cause these codes?
I did over fill the gas tank once and this code came up but replacing the gas cap seamed to fix that. That all happened a year ago.
Well, you can see the mods I've made in my signature. Please help if you have had experience with this. What do you guys think?
