Having the same issue with downpipe and E85 kit as well. Mechanic can’t diagnose the issue either.
Inspection!!!
So one of my friends, got 2 codes on (p0328 & p2185) he had a custom tune with flex fuel & catless dp. He put the factory tune in with factory dp & still the codes are there. Could it possibly be the flex fuel kit?

I'm all for doing what you want with your property, but hey, I've seen countless articles here and in other forums where mods, especially tuning and hardware swaps have caused nothing but problems. maybe our cars are a little too sensitive to being modified? maybe we should simply stay stock and live without those issues? again, do what you want, but it just seems logical to me that with a car controlled mostly by chips that altering things will inevitably cause issues.
Heyy wassup man I wanted to ask if you ever figured out the problem for Code P2185 , I recently just got the code and trying to see if it’s an actual sensor or what ? I am to running E85 and have Cattless downpipe but it’s not tuned for it yet
If you've installed a flex fuel kit, I think you probably disconnected the ECT2 (engine coolant temperature) sensor (bottom driver side area of the radiator, fan side) during the install, is that correct? If so, I think there should be a setting/option on your Ktuner or Hondata unit (I know for sure there is for Hondata) to tell the ECU to ignore the fact that the ECT2 sensor is disconnected. For Ktuner, I don't know if it automatically does that when you select Flex Fuel but for the Hondata FlashPro, it does NOT disable the ECT2 sensor automatically when you enable Flex Fuel...Heyy wassup man I wanted to ask if you ever figured out the problem for Code P2185 , I recently just got the code and trying to see if it’s an actual sensor or what ?

Cool, hope it's something simple/easy!
