Andrew Waite 11 Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 (edited) This is a honda super charged and cooled engine. Engine was driven around to get cat nice and hot and has also just had a new lamba sensor due to high emission failure on MOT. Idle CO Level 1.32 HC 145 CO2 7.50 02 9.39 Lamba 1.66 Fast Idle 3K CO Level 6.37 HC 143 C02 10.30 02 1.38 Lamba .87 Edited July 28, 2012 by Andrew Waite Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bibs 11,413 Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 The o2 readings will be all over the place, that's how the sensor works. Not sure what Lambda is measuring, the Lambda sensor is the o2 sensor isn't it?

gt111 26 Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 £12K? Quote Kent monthly meet is the first Tuesday of the month at the Nevill Bull, Birling Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Waite 11 Posted July 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 All i know is its chucking loads of fuel in at the mo. IT STINKS! When i put on the power i get a stutter as well. Changed the Lamba then had it checked again still over fueling, pretty sure its a mapping issue. Although this much fuel will probably kill the cat and the Lamba anyway.. Think i'm going to bin the super charger and get some throttle bodies for it, much simpler to look after. Ta12k for the super charger your on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gt111 26 Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 I'm trying but all I've got so far is an old Kawasaki sports bike and a supercharger of a Honda, neither of which are much use to me and I'm currently down over £20K Quote Kent monthly meet is the first Tuesday of the month at the Nevill Bull, Birling Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew Waite 11 Posted July 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Well i think it needs to go back to TDI first as they did the mapping recently. But thanks. Just popped to lipscombs to look at the evora's but like you say the interior in the 2012 is such a nicer place to be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Waite 11 Posted August 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Well sort of good news today got the M3 back and its sorted at last. Had a complete re program of the ecu. Problem solved. Only took BMW 6 months to find. Then they tell me my exhaust rear box is nuked ( not covered by warranty sir) and its a grand. Oh happy days... Lotus is in being tested now. Probably another grand to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bibs 11,413 Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Is the back box been damaged by the ECU problems? Amazing that wasn't the first thing they tried, it's free after all!

Andrew Waite 11 Posted August 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 I know the first Main dealer said they did not have the facility to re program ecu. what a load of balls. Hopefully going to get the rear box done for nought now because it had taken so long to sort the car out. I just went out in it and i have to say it feels fantastic better than it ever has been. Almost like its got another 100 brake. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew Waite 11 Posted August 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Although your bid is tempting me, i would not like to upset JJ as you did make an offer for his exige first. When i tested the tyre pressure yesterday the rears only had 15 psi in them. I came to the conclusion that this was a weight issue the night before, or the fact that the tyre's were nearly peeled from their rims. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gt111 26 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Please note my offer would have been a little higher, but I noticed an unfortunate brown stain on the passenger seat whilst I was getting out (still shaking).
