They can determine if the overall mixture is lean but as for cylinder specific its impossible.I had a code come up misfire in cyl 1 once... Maybe that's what they found?

bionicxr6t05 Bronze Donating Members 2,216 Member For: 12y 8m 27d Gender: Male Posted 11/04/13 11:26 AM Share Posted 11/04/13 11:26 AM That would be p0301, and that code is only a missfire indicator, doesnt indicate whether its rich or lean just that there is a miss or has been a miss in that cylinder. If its an igniton related miss the cylinder would be rich due to fuel not being burnt but if its an injector or manifold gasket leak the cylinder will be lean due to either no/minimal fuel injection, or excessive/unmetered air intake into the cylinder. Just by plugging ids in theres no way they can tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Velocity_ Bronze Donating Members 2,768 Member For: 12y 11m 29d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 11/04/13 01:48 PM Share Posted 11/04/13 01:48 PM (edited) No need to stress out Brucon as your car will be under full warranty. If the problem persists the lemon laws might be worth looking at but it's probably nothing serious. Any particular reason why you didn't take it back to the Fawkner dealership after the engine fault returned?
