CEL at 60%ish or higher throttle

Post by sexualpotato »

Hi everyone,
I keep getting this CEL when i do moderate-hard pulls with my throttle open (i would estimate) around 60% or higher. CEL would cause a high idle that makes the vehicle stutter when taking off from a standstill, however when i shut the car off to try and pull the code, it always goes away by the time I turn it back on. Could this be a problem with the ECU or moreso the engine and physical components
THanks!

Pull the code without shutting the car off.

update; code hasnt returned. Swapped to stock ECU to see if it would come on under similiar conditions (it didnt).

Also tried clearing and reuploading the tune onto the ECU and that seems to have fixed the issue
