Got my XCal2 - Now have check engine light.

[Christopher Gordineer]

Got my new XCal2 from Doug at BamaChips today. I installed the performance tune (93 octane) and took it for a ride and all I can say is WOW! The TBW seems much more responsive and the shifts are firmer.



I took the Trac (2007 V8) on the highway and the MPG gauge climbed to just over 21 MPG at a fast pace (didn't seem right). Got it home, changed tune back to stock went for a ride and the MPG settled back to 15.5 MPG. Re-installed the performance tune and now I have a check engine light with no codes.



Took it for a ride and the MPG has settled in at 19.1 MPG. I was hoping the check engine light would extinguish, but it did not. I have read that the emissions have to be re-learned and the light will go off after a few drive cycles and was wondering if anyone here has had this problem.



The only mods I have done are a K&N panel filter and a Magnaflow cat back.



Thanks

Good luck,

xCal2 can read the codes. Can't it also clear them?
