It's difficult to say if it's user error or product issue. I've taken my exhaust on and off at least..50 times if not more. If you don't have the valves seated perfectly, pins, springs, even the flap if you can reach it on some systems. Also most of the time I get a cel just from unplugging them. Clearing the code doesn't help. You can drain the battery, do the calibration on them, or after so many key cycles cel goes away and starts working again. I'd say most of us at one time or another have had one of our modes not work then start working again.

If an exhaust valve cel code is gonna freak you out this much, you don't need to do anything else to the truck. These are still new platforms for us. I'd be more concerned with the shop bouncing off his rev limiter than the cel.
yeah half of me is wondering if I went to the right place, but it was a recommendation from a friend— they’re well known in the BMW community here in queens and have done countless AWE systems, albeit mostly german cars.

Don't worry about it. Yes it sucks, it's a brand new truck. They'll get it taken care of though.

At least your transmission hasn't fell out yet.

We tested our 4.5” tips and felt that the slash-cut profile of the tips with the bumper design of the Ranger Raptor fell short, which is why we went with the 5” straight-cut tips as the final tip option - we felt that they matched the aggressive rear of the Raptor much better.

But we do get that tips are not everyone's cup of tea so for those looking for a more understated look, we also offer our high-clearance BashGuard as an alternative. We do not have plans to offer any additional tip options beyond the 5” Chrome Silver, 5" Diamond Black, and the high-clearance BashGuard.

While we do sell replacement tips separately as you guys have mentioned above (including the shorter body 4.5" slash-cut tips we tested during R&D), the tip outlets will not align correctly with the bumper without modification. For customers who enjoy custom fabrication, those replacement tips are available, but we want to be clear that they would require modification of the system to fit and are not intended as a direct bolt-on replacement.
