Cant find this OBD Code anywhere! What does it mean?
Hey all, I was driving around yesterday and my CEL came on. I plugged my tactrix in and using EvoScan, read the codes. The ones that came back when I run CAN MUTIII EFI are:
and when I run CAN OBDII EFI I get
I have done a google search for each of these codes, but both come up with nothing.
Anyone out there know what these two mean?
Code:
Updated: 12:55:00 Initializing CAN... Checking for CAN MUTIII EFI Diagnostic Codes... Correct Header byte response returned. 1 Diagnostic Trouble Codes Found... ---------------------------------------------- P3320
Code:
Updated: 12:56:21 Initializing CAN... Checking for CAN OBDII EFI Diagnostic Codes... Correct Header byte response returned. No Current CAN OBDII EFI Diagnostic Codes Present. Checking for Stored CAN OBDII Diagnostic Codes... Correct Header byte response returned. 1 Stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes Found... ---------------------------------------------- P33B8
Anyone out there know what these two mean?

Figured it out. Did some more searching and found that EvoScan 2.9 is giving strange codes. Used EvoScan 2.8 and it came up with
Time to go see my "friends" at the dealer..
Code:
P0133 Oxygen Sensor Circuit Slow Response (Bank 1 Sensor 1)

weird i just got this error today as well, what did the dealer say?
this is what the internet had to say from http://www.obd-codes.com/p0133
P0133 OBD-II Trouble Code
Technical Description
Oxygen Sensor Circuit Slow Response (Bank1, Sensor1)
What does that mean?
This involves the front oxygen sensor on Bank 1. This code indicates the engine air fuel ratio is not being adjusted by the oxygen sensor signal or the ECM as expected to do so, or not adjusted as often as expected to do so once the engine is warmed or under normal engine use.
Symptoms
You will likely not notice any drivability problems, although there may be symptoms.
Causes
A code P0133 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
The oxygen sensor is faulty
The wiring to the sensor is broken / frayed
There is an exhaust leak
Possible Solutions
The simplest thing to do is to reset the code and see if it comes back.
If the code comes back, the problem is more than likely the front Bank 1 oxygen sensor. You will likely wind up replacing it but you should also consider these possible solutions:
Check and fix any exhaust leaks
Check for wiring problems (shorted, frayed wires)
Check the frequency and amplitude of the oxygen sensor (advanced)
Check for a deteriorating / contaminated oxygen sensor, replace if necessary
Check for inlet air leaks
Check the MAF sensor for proper operation
