Thanks for the note about posting in the M Forum thats were I started,
My wife's M3 Engine is the same as my M Roadster.
I felt that You Folks here mite be-able to help us out.
We just got back from a week at Bass Lake Ca
No fishing just a lot of bugs on the windshield

anyway I got out the PEAKE R5/FCX-II code/reset tool and ran the the Eng. check

I got the Fault code EA and E9 using the Fault code table 16
E9 read as "Catalyst efficiency below threshold Cyl#1-3"
EA read as "Catalyst efficiency below threshold Cyl#4-6"

Can I assume that this applies to the catalytic converter?
Some info that The wife told me she had been driving in some heavy rain when she drove through a deep pot hole covered by water, at which point the check Eng. light comes on.

I reset the light but I would like to know How or What to do.
Thanks to all
Mike Threadgill
