205b WTF. Who else has had this code?

Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else.



I'm past the warranty now.

Why the photo of your vehicle? I really WANT to like the red with black, but I just can't. It all looks so out of place. Like one of those old Civics with some body panels primed, while others are of varying colors.

Pics don't do it much justice. I think it looks pretty good in the real. To each his own.

You've cleared it and it still comes back?

Two things:

If it is the temp sensor in the SCR tank, the whole tank needs to be replaced. $1000 or so plus labor.

The tank is a COVERED COMPONENT under the California Emissions warranty, 7/70...however I dont think Kansas has adopted CA standards.

This came up recently somewhere else... if it were me, I'd inspect the tank, sensor, wiring....

Thanks Ard. I plan to give it a look. When I searched through the forums on here and on other forums I've found a thread or 2 on it, but I was just wondering if there are any more people that have had this issue.

Oh and, it wouldn't let me clear it for some reason. I've only had the reader for a few hours so its still new to me. What kind do you use?

I think it looks great. I like black wheels with all of the colors.

So I tried to clear the code, but the light stayed on a few days ago. It's been drivin everyday by my wife. Today the light went away, and now there is no code? Guess it fixed itself?
