Downpipe o2 sensor spacer? Where TO BUY?
I have read that with a catted down pipe the CEL will still eventually come on unless used with a spacer. I have searched a few vendor sites but no one has this. I read about it on here, can anyone point me in the right direction on where to purchase this part? THanks.

Reason I went with catted, I am not after maximum power just a bit more and some sound. I dont want my car to smell so I opted for the catted DP.

Is your car built after 07/2013?
If yes, you can buy HJS catted dp with a dedicated ECE homologated cat that keeps car EU6 and is guaranteed by HJS not to generate dme error codes/CEL (without any lambda spacer). I've it on my M235i and I'm very happy with it. See my review here. Fabspeed has also a catted dp that has a lambda spacer integrated and should not generate CEL... |

Spark plug anti-fouler. Do a search. Ask your local auto parts guy. You may need to drill it out a bit to get your O2 sensor to fit in it.
Or, send me $30 and I'll get one right out to you. |

So does this interfere with the fuel trim like the guy above stated? How exactly does this help keep the CEL off? Just curious..

You were looking for spacers, I was just telling you where to source them. The spacers I speak of can be had for ~$5 at any auto part store. Last edited by G30 B58; 08-15-2015 at 08:19 PM.. |
