My current exhaust setup sometimes results in CEL on my 991.2. It is sporadic and I can't really explain it.
Can anyone suggest an easy to use code reader I can use to delete the CEL when it does pop up? (I find it very annoying and until a tune is available, I need an interim solution).
For people running catless, you basically don't even need the rear most O2 sensors to be exposed to the exhaust gases. They are just there to tell your ecu that your emission system is working properly and that the cats are scrubbing the gases sufficiently before it exits into the atmosphere. That's why you use the insert with the smallest hole in the adapters. You could even plug up those adapters so no gases goes to the sensors and you will never get a CEL for being catless again.
You can just plug up the smallest adapter so that no gases get to the farthest O2 sensor. That sensor is not needed anyways for your engine's AFR calculations. It's just for emissions which by you going catless, you are not worrying about anyways.
Which adapters are you using? And are you sure you secured the small ring clamp properly to secure the insert?

Im running catless with the smallest adapter and still got a cell after parking the car for a few days.

Will plugging them completely fix the problem? Don't the sensors need to breathe? I am using these Vibrant spacers on a catless exhaust too but I am still getting the CEL for both banks.

Code reader clear CEL?
