I dunno wtf....
k Ima keep this one short..
Superbowl night I'm cruisin after the game headin back to the crib and a dog starts runnin out into the road(I'm wishin now it woulda been a cat, I woulda squished that lil ****** ) So I swerve out of the way of the dog, but I shoot it 2 much an hop this curb pretty bad with my right wheels.. both of the wheels were hissing, Oh and my car shuts off
After a couple times, it turned back on, but a CEL popped up(P0101)
I got the wheels replaced(JUST bought these 4 wheels like 3 days prior) an the code's still there. So after lookin thru my car, an checkin ****, I couldn't find anything out of place, I disconnected my battery(last night) an today connected it back.
Went to start it(CEL was gone ) an we started up.... but stuttered an turned back off
Tried again..
Started real weak, stutters, I gas it a lil.. an it doesn't go past 4K an sounds horrible. I stop, an it kills itself.. I THINK I smell oil, but after I got out an back in, I didn't smell it again..
Everything still looks fine under the hood, and nuthin looks crazy in my oil. SO, I'm hopin 3rd time's the charm..
Key in.. (CEL again) try to start it, an it does this time! an everything's fine for about a second, but the Oil light came on, and the RPM's kept bobblin around 500-800.. DIDNT smell anything this time..
ONLY good thing that came out of this.. I found the back piece to my phone, it's been missing for about a week
I already have a tow truck coming tho, I was gonna take it up to the dealership out here to get some warranty work done(service air bag, and service traction kept poppin up randomly and a clicking noise whenever my a/c fan was on, no problems tho, just want that fixed..)
Hopefully... its nuthin 2 crazy.. HOPEFULLY.. cuz I didn't buy my rims or springs YET, and I dont wanna have to spend my mod money fixin the car back up
Btw.. I got a CAI,CP,catless DP, an Forge w/ a Trifecta tune if that makes any difference..
on the tow truck

"GM service manual ~ for the win
Description: P101 = Mass Air Flow Sensor Performance
Higlights from what I'm reading about diagnosing & repairs;
ECM will disable boost control and limit hte system to mechanical boost only, resulting in a substancial decrease in engine power
It reads as though this can be set by a dirty MAF ~ or a leak in the intake or a restriction in the exhaust.
It also reads as thoug ha loose connector could be the culprit.
~ it then goes into diagnostic procedures - and the techII is assumed to be handy..."
Thanks "soundjunky" for info
check ur intercooler piping, prob cracked it with the collision, can cause p101,

hmmm? what kinds of CAI do you have?
check your filter
last superbowl i ran over a chinese girl and i realized that her guts were stuck inside my CAI clogging it, not letting my engine get enought AIR
make sure there are no dogs in your CAI

anyways tho.... it didn't really sound like that video.. but it was rough kind of like that.. but in addition to gurgling an strugglin to idle.. the tow truck's almost here tho, guy I talked to at the dealership said they're about to be done for the night soon but he'll give my car a quick run thru to see if he can spot anything..
This does give me more time to work on my Retro tho if yall want pics lemme know

maybe right about a leak somewhere bein PART of the problem.. but I doubt a dirty MAF sensor cuz of the same reason.. I took a pic of the IC(bottom) so yall can see.. but other than that.. or maybe my cold side pipe busted somewhere where I cant see it? I dunno..
