Take the car to Autozone and have them scan the computer. It's free. They will be able to tell you what codes triggered the SES light and what you can do to fix it.1998 M5 3.8 Mystic Teal Camaro<br />Flowmaster exhaust, Pacesetter headers, 3\" cat, 3\" S-pipe, whisper lid, ram air, Spec Stage 1 clutch, Poly Trans mount, Walbro 255LPH.

i took my car to autozone and they scanned the computer and all that came up was a celender#2 misfire and tbs sensor i replaced the tbs sensor and it didnt make a differencecold air intake <br />80 series flowmaster<br />no cat (straight pipe)<br />rebel flagComment

cylinder two misfire comes from one of 4 things -
the spark plug, the plug wire, the coil pack, or the ignition module. check them all.
from what you said, seems more likely to be the coil pack. if the ignition module goes, usually all the cylinders will end up going.
Tap your catalytic converter too, it MAY be on its way to a clog. At first I only had 1 cyl start to misfire, then they all went. just something to watch for.2011 Camaro LS 6M, in black.Comment

i think you confused some
its "TPS" not "TBS"
the one buy the air box is the IAT (intake air temp)
the MAF is in the TB
the TPS is on the left side of the TBwww.turbov6camaro.com

to check if its the maf its the plug near the fron of the TB on the top..... you can unplug it and it will still run fine.... but it will throw the SES lightOriginally posted by bigCountry:
