Hi. Can you give me a hint? A message came up on the dashboard "emission System problem" I read errors p2096 and p2270 honda pilot 2017. Internet says similar problem although there is no extraneous sound. Can you tell me what could be the most common? And maybe the problem is that I poured injector cleaning fluid into the tank? How much is this estimated to cost at least roughly?! And I don't understand everything, I use a translator. Thank you.

the codes are saying the system is too lean. Try using high octane gas. if that does not work, you have to use a scan tool to see if the o2 sensor is working correctly or going bad.

@@AJIMPORTS Thanks for the reply and suggestion. I'm holding off on the O2 extender simply because the light doesn't bother me as much (I was able to pass inspection this year) as I like to problem solve. I want to know what is wrong. I think it may have started with the faulty software for which Honda had a bulletin. That got patched, but I believe it caused the fuel injectors to misfire and it may have snowballed from there. I'm in the middle of attempting to do what you showed on the video. At this point I'm not getting enough leverage to loosen the bolts. Frustrating, but will try again tomorrow.

I can see the honeycomb and there's no obvious melting or damage, but a powdery residue is present on the upstream side of the Cat. More comes out with some knocking. I'll wash it and put it back in to see if it helps. Worst case, I'll have to do it again and buy a new Cat. Thanks for the great video. I wouldn't have done this without your help.

Hello, I have the same P2138 code on my 2003 toyota tacoma and the same issues with the complete loss of power while driving. I tried to replace my Throttle position sensor and it turned the engine light off for a bit, I drove maybe 15 miles and everything felt great, no lag, good throttle response, then the same code came back and I lost power again. Any idea what else it could be? I've heard that when changing the TPS you may have to do a relearn procedure. I didn't know this at the time and just test drove the car immediately after slapping the new part in. When I clear the code with my scantool I can drive the truck fine, but it always comes back.

Move the can closer to the axle and make the tips longer. Really you want the single section in the middle and to be as long as possible, only splitting into duals at the axle, and then with two 3.5 by at least 12 long rolled edge tips.

@@AJIMPORTS Can you fit a 5x11 cased muffler in the middle? If so, consider putting two of the smallest-bodied magnaflow mufflers with the built-in X-pipes in the middle (ahead of the rear subframe) then just running two pipes back to the 3.5x12 or longer rolled edge tips. Having two X-pipes should blend the sound almost as well as a Y-pipe and using two of the smallest cased packing style mufflers should get the volume bearable. Plus since you'll have two pipes coming off the muffler you won't have to do a split at the end where the tips are, AND you can then place the tips more easily wherever you want. TVR style (out each side behind the tires) would be cool to see, but dual centers are also fun, so up to you and whatever you wanna do. But definitely, the longer the actual tip (and having it rolled edge) seems to improve sound in my experience, and I say 3.5 dia mostly to keep the appearance reasonable and to make sure they fit in your cutout.
