Who? I have read all the replies. I have never seen an instance where the removal threw a code. I have read where people reported surging power. That power surge equates to better throttle sensitivity to me.
I've run my car without the carbon filter for 3000 miles and it runs better without it--no question about it. I think that service bulletin that a member here posted has created a placebo effect. I have an M6 and with that car and this car, I noticed a noticable improvement in throttle response in BOTH cases. Both cars never ever threw a CEL.
