Title: Engine managment possible sports cat, VCDS results
Post by: mano on June 03, 2012, 05:24:22 pm

Hello all, had a sports cat in for around 4000 miles, never had a problem, driving home however resently its been smoking a lot under hard accelleration, or so i am told.

results from scan are below,

2 Faults Found:

001056 - Catalyst System; Bank 1
               P0420 - 002 - Efficiency Below Threshold - MIL ON


001089 - EVAP Emission Control Sys
               P0441 - 002 - Incorrect Flow - Intermittent




personally i think it could be the sports cat is f*cked? however advice is please.
