Drive Cycle
Appreciate any helpful tips you may provide. Thanks
California allows for 1 in not ready status, but it's limited to the EVAP & in my case it's the dreaded CAT that is not ready. Stock downpipe reinstalled, loaded Stage 1 tune (Evolve) w/ cold start delete, cleared all error codes via ISTA, performed Drive Cycle & all are in a Ready status except the CAT I have now completed the CAT specific Drive Cycle 5 times 1. Drove for 15 minutes & once for 20 minutes 2. Accelerated & kept speed between 48 - 55 MPH 3. RPM never reached 3000 RPM 4. Kept it in 4th gear though I don't think it matters on the which gear 5. Gas between 1/4 - 3/4 tank full Since the stock DP was installed, I've added 143 miles Roughly 80 miles of that is the CAT specific Drive Cycle Curious to know if anyone else struggled with getting the CAT ready. How many CAT specific Drive Cycle did it take? SMOG technician told me to simply add more mileage I've only performed the DC once before on an E60 M5 & managed to get the CAT to go in Ready status within 7 minutes on the 1st try. Loaded Stage 1 tune (Evolve) with cold start delete which is exactly my current setup

Back when I had a bad set of ecus I drove 1000 miles and cat 02 sensor never reset . Maybe it was the bad dme. Maybe it was pulling the battery and hard resetting. But I feel your pain ! good luck, just keep driving. Cruise control 65 mph on the highway and don't go over 3k rpm it's hard, wasted a lot of time at 2am driving like a grandma ha

Loaded the stock tune, cleared all error codes & started it up. I was reminded I have the exhaust valves stuck wide open. Drove to the gas station to ensure I have 3/4 tank & on my way back home, the CAT went to ready status I just need to complete the other 2 Drive Cycles to get the O2, Fuel & EVAP to the Ready status. Thanks!!
