Ronin225's Candy rimmed Black LCR - Project 500-4WD, Cage installed and bigger turbo
- Thread starter Ronin225
- Start date
Decided to treat the car to some love today, so hoovered out, all washed down, polished the whole thing and did all the glass
I'm by no means a detailer and not anal about it being overly pristine so its by no means perfect
So a few pics of how it turned out
Everyone seems to list what they used to get there cars clean so i'll do the same
1.thanks to SECT the resident DJ for the mixes to keep me going
2. About a gallon of sweat
3. 10ml of blood when i half fell over trying to dance and clean simultaneously
4. couple of cans of coke
5. A hoover
6. Some meguiars stuff
Just need to organise a day with Phill now to see if i can log the Lambda's to see if a dying one is causing my EML
Also as far as buying a TIG welder goes, a decent set with the gubbins is a couple of grand so hire/borrow is the only real way

Few more things to update, replaced my brakelight again after the last one died within a week
The brake pad wear sensor light has come on so need to check the cabling as its been linked out so shouldnt come on
Spoke to Phill and barn about doing some logging of the lambdas to try sort my EML but none of us really have any idea what readings we should be getting, apart from knowing we need to log block 031 and 032
Anyone shine a light on these?

What fault codes are you seeing? 031 shows lambda readings (actual and commanded), 032 shows your long and short-term fuel trims. You can see 032 without even starting the engine, if the long-term trim is outwith -7.0 to +7.0 then something isn't right.
If you're worried about air/fuel ratios then log blocks 001 and 031. 001 shows lambda correction values, 031 shows actual readings. You could chuck a block showing MAF readings on there too just to check that, it's the usual suspect.

Thanks for the advice
Car was previously 200 g/s with its mods on the OE map, it then started to pop and bang more (lots more) EML came and cars performance was pulled back
If reset the car does pull better but bangs lots more hence me thinking of overfuelling and dead lambda
I may try and do some logs of 001 and 031, then 003 and 020 and see what kind of results i get.
I do have the spare MAF off the S3 but its probably quicker to just pop out and do a log

Haven't heard of a dead lambda causing limp mode but never say never. Plenty of other reasons for overfuelling too tho, hence worth logging MAF readings. Checked for boost leaks? If you post the fault code throwing the EML that will give some more clues.
200 g/s on OEM map is pretty cool
This happened on my Ibiza
It was faulty maf in the end but it caused my coils to die and my lambda. I had ignition, lambda, cat and fueling codes, 10 of em lol.
I changed the coils and the lambda first still happened so new maf and it's been ok since. Limp mode I couldn't get rid of by turning the car off had to erase the codes first.

Cheers for the input guys
The EML came on about 5 months ago since doing it i changed to range plugs and the 2 litre coils so they are ok
I may have logged the MAF since the EML but cant remember, i think ive checked for leaks too
I dont have the full vagcom so cant log block 031 but i can do 001 and 003 tonight

Quick logs of block 001 and 002
The MAF readings look down but not majorly low. Lambda will go outside +or- 7 sat at idle too
May pop the MAF from the S3 on now and take it out just to see if it feels any better
Any info on the above would be appreciated

Quickly swapped over to the S3 MAF of unknown age or condition and initially it didnt feel much better, still flat and not quick so thought id do a quick log then it seemed to adapt
Not sure if thats completely solved it but as i drove it seemed to get better, hopefully lambda is ok

Lambda corrections on block 001 show it's trying to pull a fair bit of fuel out of the mix, it's a shame you can't log block 031 to see the actual lambda sensor values, you could calculate AFRs from that. Can you get someone with full VCDS to help out?
Are you not able to scan it for fault codes? Should be able to do that with unregistered vagcom.

I'll have a chat to Phillc and see if some time this/next week we can do block 031
Only fault code is 16804 catalyst below efficiency threshold
The lambda readings were all over the place when watching with normal driving, a few times of negative high 20's
Just wonder if as chambers said it has killed my lambda too, but need to log it to be sure

lambda readings will be all over the shop when normal driving, when you lift off the throttle for example (even not by much) the throttle plate closes a bit and for a fraction of a second the car is running really rich, you're just seeing it coping with your constantly changing driving inputs.
Way to check lambdas is log block 031 plus one other that shows RPM (001 would show the correction values too), do a 3rd or ideally 4th gear run from about 2000rpm until about 6krpm. Foot flat on the floor too, if the block 031 values are too high, too low or all over the place then your lambdas or your cat are shot.
