runs great..looks great..LOVE the ability to see why my check engine light is on~

...just wish i understood what half of those gauges meant in the Data Display. LOL

what gauges do you not understand, almost all of them are critical in being able to trouble shoot problems on your own if its not actually throwing a code

it occasionally will throw a code. 32 and 24.
EGR and knock sensor.
EGR just might need cleaning..but the knock sensor is less than a yr old.

Knowing that, what gauges should I be looking out for?

check the tq on your knock sensor. Also anything loose banging into the engine can fake it out.

As far as the gauges, I watch and log all of them if there is ever a problem with the car. If anything jumps or does something stupid I check its sensor and wiring.

I noticed the 02 gauge goes crazy sometimes..but im pretty sure that doesn't have anything to do with the knock sensor...BUT..
just the other day, I got an error code 45 and it said leaky injector. which i thought was interesting because i replaced the whole set of injectors less than a yr ago.
is it possible this is throwing the knock sensor?

and the EGR should just be cleaned, right?
