Seriously though, the car felt to accelerate a bit quicker and it seem to rev a bit lower on the open road which i suppose would improve the economy, note was definatly deeper, no exhaust whistle.
I honestly care about any of that if it keeps throwing codes though!!!!

i have recently bought an 06 hilux with a 3 inch exhaust with a cat and muffler. it also has the stepper motor trouble code and goes in to limp home mode. I'm just wondering if anyone has tried to clean the map sensor and filter and if it helps
