Hey Guys, I recently installed a Injen intake for my 2006 Cobalt SS. I had my friend install it, who works with cars daily. However, right when i started driving it, the engine light came on the the traction Control turned off. I called the dealership where i bought the car, and they said that the light will continue to stay on if i do not put the old intake back on. Is there anything i can do to keep the new Injen intake on that will make the engine light go off??? Will the short ram method work??? Please Respond!!!!!!
Thanks, Jordan

This is the car how i bought it a year ago

First of all, what do you have, a 2.2L or a SS?

CobaltDude06

how can you have a 2.2L SS i am confused

and also did u buy the intake that fits the 2.2 or the one that fits the 2.0 cause that could be your problem

if everything is tight, delete the code and move on.

SS=2.4 or 2.0 supercharged

jdub777

What do you mean delete the code?

CobaltDude06

yeah it looks like you may have bought the wrong intake

D4u2s0t

i mean get a scanner, and delete the code. tons of people get a cel from an intake. just because you have a cel doesn't mean it's a bad thing. as long as the car is running properly you're fine. make sure the maf is in tight, all the connections are tight, and that's it.

Disconect your battery for about 30sec.

I did disconnect the battery for 30 seconds and then my friend did it for 15 minutes and it didnt work...Is this the intake I should have bought??!?!?! http://www.ultrarev.com/product.php?productid=27409

Did you disconnect the battery, and then let it warm up to operating temp? Is it leaking? Any noises? I put mine on, and a lot of people here have as well with no issues, look around.

D4u2s0t

no it's not. the one you got is fine. read my above post. if you're still freaked out about it i would leave your car stock and sell the intake. it's a very, very common thing. again, as long as it's installed correctly and the connections are tight there's nothing to worry about.

D4u2s0t

but, for future reference, you have a 2.4, not a 2.2

GreenPurgatory

If nothing works, and apparently nothing has, put the stock back on, run the car for a bit, that should get rid of the code, and then re-try the install.

jdub777

So, can you relate me to a website where the code is given or do i need to go to the dealership and have them do it? And the Intake i bought is OK even if its a 2.2L??

D4u2s0t

the intake is fine. the dealer won't tell you the code. take it to auto zone. but since you seem to be the kind of person that gets nervous when a cel comes on (no offence meant, many people get nervous about it) pick yourself up a code reader. you can get them for like 50 dollars, mine was about 100. it tells you what the code is, gives a disc that tells you what the code means, and you can delete them if you want. it's a good thing to have if you plan on doing anything to your car, or if you get nervouse easy.

the codes are listed on this site, use the search button it is your friend. here's a link to the code you are probly throwing https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/showthread.php?t=12508 almost everyone who has put an intake on throws this code, it's not unusual.
