Headers causing the problem??
I have been having a problem with my car since having the heades installed by the dealer. I have been having my Active Handling come on at 5k to 6k rpms ONLY. Also airbag sensors dying. The dealer is stomped by this. I turned to a ABS specialist that I looked up in on the net. Thier opinion was that the header heat is messing with the AH/Airbag sensors causing it to go nuts.
What do you guys think? I know that many have had zero issues with thier headers..etc...etc but I'm fresh out ideas.
FYI .. I did the steering clip, got tires, tpms, tunning,replaced an EBCM.

Clicking but feeling loose is that ok? Could a loose plug wire really cause this?

I had this happening to me even with the factory plugs and wires. I then put MSDs on and ngk t55s later. One wire felt loose but clicked on. HP sales in pompano checked them and said that they were fine.

A loose plug wire will give 2 codes, cylinder (fill in the number) misfire and service active handling. Had it happen to my car when a factory plug wire fell off the coil. Replaced them with MSD's.

After ther dealer put in a new EBCM the "service active handling" message hasn't come on BUT active handling still come on at 5 to 6k rpm WOT(ocasional airbag light though they). All yaw/tc sensors and airbag sensors have been changed but still.
oh, wait
Thats a little better.
No missfires by the way.
Thanks

Yeah they are uncoated but LG themselfs said that it should be cooler than with stock manifolds. I belive the only member that I read with this happening to him is SMOOVE. I have sent him PMs but he has been inactive on the forum for about 2weeks.
