Tripometer Randomly Resetting and other probs
1) My tripometer has reset back to 0.0 by itself 3X within the last two weeks. The ODO seems to be fine though.
2) I have rich Bank 1/2 codes, and a bad pinging (detonation) at 5K+, related?
Thanks

though w/only 5k miles i'd guess it's an 02? MAYBE an 01? if that's the case bring it to the dealership... make GM pay out some of the money they already charged you for the warranty.. and help out a mechanic

so you've gotta 99
do a search for "trip reset" and you'll find that you're not alone ... seems to be a common issue w/99s ,

TSB: 99-08-49-009 trip odometer-automaticaly resets to zero
sounds like the fix is the gauge cluster needs to be replaced... dunno if this type of thing would be warranteed since the car is 5-6 years old
I interpretted the 5k as miles and not RPM ... my bad
what O2 codes are you setting?

P0172: Fuel Trim System Rich Bank 1
P0176: Fuel Composition Sensor Circuit
ok... 176 I have never seen before...
for the P0172 ... i'd check for vacuum leaks ... spray a flammable spray (brake cleaner... just make sure it says "warning flammable") along the intake manifold... on the drivers side ... listen for changes in idle characteristics ... if it changes you've gotta vacuum leak... that can cause high LTRIMs (+25%)
do you have anyway of logging/scanning your car? (also please update your signature and from location ... it helps for knowing about your car and you ... sometimes people that are local to you will help you out)
if u can... verify the 176 code... Only reference to that code on the entire site is a DTC list that 2000 Camaro SS posted back in April 2002 (https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...ighlight=P0176)

So with the TSB, I am screwed? And have to pay out of pocket?
To be honest, this car has giving me HELL since I got it a month ago
1) Rear-end replaced
2) Error codes
3) running a second slow in the 1/4
4) now this ODO crap........come on GM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i'd check for a vacuum leak.... if both sides are getting it... it could be a leak pre Intake manifold...
rear replace : our 10 bolt rears are weak ... but to have to replace right after buying
a second slower? whatya running?
Gotta figure out what's wrong first.. then fix it.. then run it

strange mine is a 99 and has the same problem.
mine started doing that, then i replaced the battery and it went awy. i switched to a dynabatt and it came back is it the gauge or the battery.
