What pointy ears?
Looks like they broke a bolt and didn't tell you about it (and probably other issues they had).

Well, usually the best jobs I usually do when I am drunk too. I don't have very good background on car engines but I believe if I had a few shots of whiskey I would have done better job. At least I would have used the nylon spacers and wouldn't have broken the bolt.
However, after finishing I would have thought that those codes were caused by something I did wrong.

I noticed that when I clear those 2 codes (0002, 2800) while the car is running or before I switch on (doesn't really matter), I can drive for hours and those 2 codes will not come. However, when I switch off, at the next engine start, they will always come within 10-25 seconds. What troubles my mind is the pattern at which it happens. This means that during my driving, it collects data that are not important at that time to trigger a CEL but at the next start or even before the engine starts, the ECU must be using those info within the 1st minute of startup and at that time it will trigger the CEL. Afterwards, those data must not be significant since it will not trigger it again, even if I erase the codes.

The check engine light comes on after you turn the car off then on because you must do a full cycle on-off-on with the ignition key. That ends the PCM "drive-cycle". You just completed the "trip" so the PCM turns on the check engine light to show you have an error in the system.
So much for Systems Engineers!
I'm with Ray....check the CAT. This is tough cause you are JDM and that's why I backed out of this thread early on.
Well, that and sticking my tail between my legs and cowering away after getting chastised by Ray(in a non-descript sort of way).
FYI...........I did know he was JDM from the get go.
