Scotty I dont know if you got to my question before, so I am asking again, I have a 2007 acura TL base model with 256K miles My check engine light keeps coming and going, I hooked up a scanner and it tells me Below threshold bank 2, I ran some cataklean throught it and still light comes and goes, any suggestions? Should I try another bottle of Cataklean? Thanks for all your videos and U Rock!!
Also I just had the shocks (smartstut installed) replaced a year ago in the front and for some reason now My tires wear uneven and it seems everytime this happens, I get told my tires are cupping, How can I fix this and keep it from happening?

First have your alignment checked and pray they didn't sell you crappy struts cuz they can make it up too
And you could try some more cleaner or try some trick I did put cleaner in and one tank of shell v power gasoline sometimes a higher quality gas Burns better and then the cat works better
ok I will try that and let you know, also I dont know if you got to my other question, but it goes back to the suspension, I have had the suspension replace twice (smartstruts) i fell like I am going to have to do it again, Should I just change over to coilovers? or keep the smartstruts. I fell stupid on asking this, but what is the main difference between the two, are coilovers better than smartstruts do you get more mileage out of them? The check engine light has gone out for now and has been gone for about a week, so i am waiting for it to come back on. If i had the money and was not engaged I would have just went and bought another Acura (used of course) but hey Im gonna be stuck witht this one for a while and I need it to last, So i really appreciate all your advice. Hell if I get froggy maybe Ill drive to Tennessee and maybe you could take a look at it for me.
Thanks again for all your help and advice,

Just use plain struts but get a reputable brand.
You cat could be worn out too . Give it a bump and see if it rattles. Or try taking out the O2 sensor and see if the car runs better.
