2011 RTL / SE5 having issues. Idles roughly at start up then smoothes out for approximately 7 - 10 minutes before shutting off. Showing codes P2279 an P0106. Would like to hear from the group before taking to the dealer.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Need Help - Idles rough then smooth + codes

Yep, if you havent replaced to 2 hoses. They are way over due. I just did our 2011 RTS last week. They are the 2 red hoses in the pics. I used the napa lines.
And this is what my stock lines looked like from an 2011 RTS w/ 15k miles

ALSO.....
Check the intake boots/manifolds for the throttle body. They do the same thing but start with the hoses shown above. Quick check for the manifolds is the Rev the engine and spray WD40 around them. If the rpm's change they are leaking and high temperature silicone will be a temporary fix till you can change them...:thumbup:

M109Dreamer - thanks for the info. Is this on the right or left side?

So, I have found that my front hose is definitely cracked wide open and the other one has sura e cracks. The back hose looks like it is easy to replace; however, the front one is a pain. Do you have to loosen the Bosh Controller to make it easier to replace the front hose or is there some other way. Do I have to remove the air box?

When you replace the hoses: use high quality silicon hose of the same size. It'll outlast the bike! :thumbup:

You might need a needle nose pliers to pull the old hose off. If it still wont budge use a knife to slice the side of the old hose at the fitting. Use the old hose as a pattern to get the exact length when you cut the new replacement to length. It's not as difficult as it seems.

Sorry, for the late response I'm not on very much anymore since SL doesn't support TapaTalk. You don't have to remove anything, just either cut the old ones off or what I did was twist the lines to brake the seal and then they just pulled straight off. When you do replace them you will want to make sure that you use the same length of tubing. I just took the old ones off and measured those and then just cut the new tubing to the same length.

On any vehicle, sitting on or in the vehicle, the left side is the driver's left and the right side is the driver's right side.............
unless you are Navy .......... then it is port and starboard.............
Left and right are always when you are behind the vehicle facing the same direction it is.

Other than the plastic covers you don't have to remove anything to remove the hoses. I did have to use long nose pliers to get to the front one. Be as careful as you can as you need to cut your new hoses to the same length as the old. I bought my hose from NAPA.
