Well worth cleaning. A bit of methylated spirit or isopropanol works very well.
HDi how exactly should i clean the maf?
I have taken it off and it looks a bit dirty
Cotton swab and alcohol. The actual sensor part is a tiny pair of wires affixed to the inner wall of the cylinder
No car is going to offer boost without the engine being under load. There is not enough exhaust gas flow under 'dry' revving conditions to spin up the turbocharger.
true HDi fun .
@rd070707 , can you give a bit more info ?
what fault codes you're getting?
whats the turbo pressure @ 1000 , 2000 , 3000 and 4000rpm ?
FIXED *****
Changed the turbo control electrovalve today and off she went. This is actualy the first time in my ownership of the car that it has had full boost :amuse:
Remap time I think
Is your the 1.6 110 or the 2.0 110?
i'll say something you already know i'm sure but it's never to much to say it :
do a full service on your motor before any mods. be sure everything is spot on.
Should go to about 150bhp and about 250lbft
You'll like it believe me. 250lbft is in three litre naturally apsirated petrol territory.
Mine was a claim against the other party so had no problems with insurance going up. If you're already paying a fortune then maybe leave the remap alone for now.
My experience was with Celtic Tuning. I believe that they have a workshop in Antrim.
cant wait to feel the torque! :love:
Hdi you said about having the car absolutely spot on before a remap. What else should be checked for wear and tear before going for it? :bigsmile:
Just the usual service items really. All you ae doing is taking up some of the slack the makers built in for the mass market. After the map you must stick to service intervals, don't stretch them.
You really don't have to be too particular. All I really meant was that you dont' want to remap a car with an ECU that's got faults logged. Reputable tuners wouldn't touch it if that were the case anyway.
what about timing belt? at 115k what about my turbo too? :toung:
