don;t look too far out.

has a mappper/specialist looked at it yet?

peter zippy reid 03 July 2015 09:59 PM

Yes the guy that did test does opensource he cant seem to find issue says fueling is fine and 02 and maf are within tolerances

Tidgy 03 July 2015 10:00 PM

find a better mapper would be my advice

peter zippy reid 03 July 2015 10:01 PM

Car was mapped by andy f but hes fully booked till end of august now

Tidgy 03 July 2015 10:02 PM

ah right, need to find a decent specialist then who knows em inside out :(

peter zippy reid 03 July 2015 10:04 PM

I keep going back to 02 and maf as they were off a breaker so dont know if they can be trusted to be working correctly

Tidgy 03 July 2015 10:06 PM

has it missfired when hes been plugged in? if he only see's it when its fine hard to trace intermitent fault

peter zippy reid 03 July 2015 10:09 PM

No misfire when he had laptop on it it only misfires if i try to drive through bad stuttering as in apply more throttle instead of just lifting off

**jay** 03 July 2015 10:14 PM

Plugs gapped correctly?

peter zippy reid 03 July 2015 10:15 PM

dont try to drive through it, could damage the engine. Can you leave the car parked up and go into town and then have him plug in when its cold and doing it?

peter zippy reid 03 July 2015 10:23 PM

He had it 5 days mate said he couldnt find fault

Tidgy 03 July 2015 10:26 PM

hmmmmmmm, need to def find a decent specialist in yoru area then

peter zippy reid 03 July 2015 10:29 PM

Its trying to find one thats the issue

Bob99 03 July 2015 11:31 PM

Compression (warm engine, 350 rpm and fully open throttle)

Standard = 142 — 171 psi
Limit = 128 psi
Difference between cylinders less than 7 psi

Your pressures are low and below the bottom limit. Might be worth getting a leak down test done to establish where the problems. Could be piston rings or valves passing.

Did you do the test wet and dry ?

peter zippy reid 04 July 2015 02:42 AM

Compression Test done dry and he did leak down test said leak down was fine

peter zippy reid 04 July 2015 07:18 AM

Started car today sat for 2mins before driving off water gauge reading 43degrees drove fine when andy mapped it he said he didnt get a signal from avcs within the 60secs on start up but said he would get it on the road could this be the issue

gazzawrx 04 July 2015 06:00 PM

Those readings are low, and as its across all 4 cylinders its doubtful its rings, id look more at the engine timing etc.

ScottyPPP 04 July 2015 08:59 PM

Could just be a ****ty tester.

peter zippy reid 04 July 2015 09:05 PM

Thinking that mate as other than cold issue car runs fine running 1.65 boost
