Got a jap import and the headunit has a paddy with some CDs.
Are they picky on what type they will read as it keeps comming up with error 6.
It an ADDZest DMX960Z random thingy brand.
ANy help most appreciated.
Piston bore sprays..............
An engine which is correctly run in to create as best a ring seal as possible will burn least oil. And since rings NEED combustion pressure to seal against the bore its only natural to assume that a greater seal is acheived under more load and higher rpm (a...
Is it a MK1 172?
Changing the TB wont do anything since the potentiometer is the onlything the ECU sees in that area.
Its proably another sensor like the lambda providing no info so the engine is running in what it knows to be safe. TO run in closed loop with no data feed could result in...
Right, there is ALOT of misleading info and half answers here.
Firstly, the choice of what oil your respective dealer puts in depends on what they buy in bulk, they do not stock a different oil for different vehicles. They have oil on tap hanging from the ceiling...so you get what they get in...
Its rolling losses, not JUST transmission losses people.
I think the confusion arises there as i quite readily accept that transmissions should and cannot effectively absorb more than 15%.
If you calculate the amount of heat generated and fuel burnt simply tuning the tranny over then its...
Rich, its quite the same story for us to turn round and question the accuracy of the calibration for the rolling road/s you have used to attain your figures, to me they sound high and i wouldnt expect 176bhp out of a CTR on the RR we use.
At the end of the day you are dealing with not just an...
The cam is phased at 800mb from 1450rpm upwards, 5000rpm isnt the VVT phasing, been over it once and a million times.
The VVT system is simplistic and not there for power.
std plain discs are fine, Castrol response Super DOT4 fluid and if your hard on the pads, some pagid RS blues will last you the trackday season and the year or more road miles.
I personally dont see the need for an LSD in such lowe powered cars on teh road.
it does help with holding a line though.
But LSDs are noisy, wear, you need the right friction modifiers in the box which might work against the actual gearsets and synchros.......and if you have extreem...
