Terrible Fuel Economy
#11
So, I made an appointment at the dealer to get it flashed back to stock. They told me it would take an hour so I left it for the day. Later that day I called them to find out that they didn't actually have the tool to do the flash, after being told that it would only take an hour the day before :/ . Then they proceeded to tell me that they weren't going to charge me for a recall that had to be done on my airbag. No kidding you're not going to charge me... its a recall. Anyway, they are going to let me know when they have the tool in for the tune.

Dealer still hasnt gotten back to me... Just the other day I had code P0151 pop up and shortly after the otherside came up (P0152). Its been a couple days and I have purchased the both side O2 sensors (upstream) to replace them. But for the past two days I have only had the P0152 code. The other one dissapeared. Should I go about replacing both sides or should I wait to see if that other side comes back. Ive heard you want to replace them in pairs. I also went to take a look at them but they are stuckkk in there. I have been spraying them with liquid wrench for the past week and I assume I will need to use a torch when it comes to replacing them. Should I go about replacing both of them (From what ive read, could be a potential fix) then taking a drive over to the dodge dealer?

If the parts are the same age, I'd replace both of them. I put two headlight bulbs in the GF's car and she asked why when I replaced both.
It took nearly 3 hours to take the front of the car apart. I wasn't about to go back in a week later. Now that I've done it, I could probably do it in two hours. (This is one reason I rarely fool with late model GM vehicles.)

So today I replaced the upstream O2 sensors. It went relatively well except for when I accidentally burnt myself with the torch. I have only put 20KM on with the new sensors so there isn't any codes and hopefully there wont be. I attached a picture of both of them. To me they look really good, no gunky build up, dry? I feel that the picture emphasizes the whiter looking part but it is still a lighter colour regardless. Could it be that way because of the long tube headers? More heat?
Thanks!
Thanks!

So im now at 1/16 of a tank left with my overhead screen telling me that I have 35 KM left on the tank. I am at 420KM on the tank currently. So I feel like the O2 sensors helped a slight amount but I feel that these are still pretty gross numbers... I will be giving Dodge a call about the tune here in a day or two and I will let you guys know what comes of it.

In my 2013 Subaru Legacy they reccomend the same thing; taking the front bumper off... I just went through the wheel well on my car and squeezed my new bulbs in lol

With all of this pandemic issue going around the Tune is on hold and I have a lot of time on my hands. Do you guys know of anything else I could look at or into to figure out my fuel economy issue? Is there any way to test injectors without pulling all of them out? Any other suggestions?
Thanks
