It may seem like a crisis when you are running low on Meth but I don't think you would want the car to tell you

C6 is programmable in car. C5 isn't but has the ability to pull and clear DTC's. Can't have both apparently.

It's probably something hard-coded into the system somehow. Not to say it's 100% impossible, but no one has probably tried. I went back and searched a bunch of threads and read up and didn't find anything useful.
