DTC clearing
 

Hey all quick question, been having issues with airpump stuck on bank 2 I think? Causing a check engine light, I've been removing it with the wireless obd2 connector to my iPhone which can clear the DTCs, but every time I do this the car seems to take a lot longer to start, like it's turning over but not starting for double the time it usually takes. Anyone know what's happening or can explain if this is bad clearing the DTC when it pops up (once a week or every couple of months it depends on how cold it is)


using the Perth-WRX mobile app

My 06 xt foz does this too. It's as if theres no spark. I usually crank it over for a second or two than stop than go again. Usually fires not to long after. Though it's been a while since i've had to reset a code.

See details under

It's the ecu restarting, turn the key on, wait 5 seconds then start, let it idle for a minute or so to let all the sensors recalibrate
