Cel Gone 2016 M6 Cab With Super Sprint Down Pipes Once Akra Evo Installed

WELL ... SORRY I HAVE NOT POSTED PICTURES OF THE NEW AKRA EVO ON MY 2016 M6 ... MY WIFE WROTE OFF THE CHEVY SUBURBAN WHEN SHE BANGED IT UP LAST TUESDAY ... GOT WORD OF WRITE OFF LATE FRIDAY AFTER I PICKED UP THE M6 FROM BMW AFTER AKRA INSTALL ...

ANYHOW, LOOKING AT 2015 GLK OR X3 AS A REPLACEMENT OF OUR 14 YEAR OLD SUBURBAN

ANYHOW ... I DIDN'T POST PICS YET ..

BUT THE AMAZING THING IS THIS ...

2 WEEKS AGO THE SUPER SPRINT DOWN PIPES WENT IN THE 2106 M6 CAB AFTER 2000 KM BREAK IN ... CEL WENT ON THE NEXT DAY AND THE EXHAUST SMELLED VERY RICH AS FOR BURN

AKRA EVO WENT ON LAST FRIDAY, CAR SAT IN GARAGE AS WE DEALT WITH DEMOS ALL WEEKEND TO REPLACE THE 2002 SUBURBAN AND TODAY ON MY DRIVE TO WORK THE CEL TURNED OFF ... AND DID NOT COME BACK ON ON MY DRIVE HOME ... STILL RUNNING SHELL V-POWER ...

DID I MENTION SHE ROAD RASHED THE PASSANGER SIDE RIMS OF THE 2015 S63 AMG ON FRIDAY

ANYHOW:

MY DEALER A LITTLE AMAZED AS AM I ... THEY THINK 2016 CPUs MAY BE LEARNING NEW MODS AND SET UP AND ADJUSTING AS NEEDED ... THE RICH BURN SMELL AFTER WENT CATLESS ALSO GONE TODAY ... they do not have any other explanation

ANYHOW ... ONCE THE DUST SETTLES ON THE HOME FRONT AND HAVE HAPPY WIFE-MOBILE SO SHE STAYS AWAY FROM MY TOYS WILL POST PICS ... AND YES SHE IS OK ... HURT PRIDE ... BUT OK .. SHE LOST HER TRUCK THAT SHE LOVED ... NOW TO PUT HER INTO A PROPER GERMAN RIDE AND THEN STEP UP TO NEW GLS OR X5M ONCE WE READY FOR ANOTHER MAJOR PURCHASE ... START WITH CUTE GLK OR X3 .. OR PLATE AND ENSURE THE JOHN DEERE GATOR

ANYONE ELSE SEE THIS RE THE CEL WITH SUPERSPRINT CATLESS DOWN PIES AND AKRA EVO???


SORRY .. A LITTLE

yes was thinking new GLS 63 AMG ... but with her insurance now going up to an estimated $7000 a year Canadian by 2016 renewal time for a 2015 GLK 250 Bluetec or 2016 X3 28d (read it will double) ... lol ... GLK or X3 may be the way to go till her insurance down ... it is MORE THAN what I pay for 2015 S63 and 2016 M6 Cab combined for a GLK or X3 based on her insurance quote ...

got to love it ... LOL ... road rash S63 AMG 22s ...

Any CEL yet? Seems like an interesting theory for the new 2016's although I am skeptical. Would be very nice though, if BMW did actually have the ECU adapt to catless downpipes, but from a legal standpoint I still can't see BMW actually designing the CEL to go away.

Sorry for the late reply - was in Hawaii last week.

Anyhow, the 750 km road trip went very well ... lots of looks and fun on the highway ... especially in the 120 km/h stretch up island where everyone hits 135 km/hour at least.

Trip to Sprout Lake and Return had no CEL.

Then went to Hawaii the next morning after our rtn from Sprout for a week and parked M6 in Garage ... rtn to work this past week. First 3 days of my 60 km round trip commute, no CEL.

Thursday morning the CEL came on half way to work and stayed on till my drive home on Friday ... Friday morning filled the tank with Shell V-power as I was less than 1/4.

Went for a Starbucks this morning before I washed the M6 and the CEL is still off

NOTE - LESS CAPITALIZATION

Got her a 2015 GLK 250 Bluetec 4matic for now in white (yeah we all white cars now) ... will see about the new GLS63 AMG when it comes out.

A good Buddy of mine I went to school with just got his new 2016 X5M in Black!

Towing capability may be decision maker for us, although the X5M was very sweet ... not to mention seating for 7

But with her driving record ... I think everyone will be terrified regardless of color
