I thought that too, but surely the map would have addressed that as a potential cause? BTW, its not your injectors, as my ECU is requesting the correct AFR, but its not getting through the injectors.
duncan:
thats a very good point and to be honest - the over fueling has to point to the ECU setup - the tuner thought it might of had something to do wtih the latest software that is on the ECU from VW
the only thing is if it was for a country with an extremley different climate to that of the uk / EU then it would have been produced left hand drive.
my only feeling is that when it had this WALD conversion instead of just applying a Generic map they ended up altering the fuel mixture, so when the map has been flashed due to a software update, this may not have entirely flashed the ECU's settings still leaving a kind of ghost of the privious map
not sure if that is actually possible - but again could be possible?
neg:
Good point but as stated most well known tuners (not sure for all) replace the map on the car with their modified version so this would rule it out. I know Revo always work on the latest released map - e.g. when mine went in for the ECU update I was actually already running it but they didnt know so I let them apply it for piece of mind as I was under warranty.
Glad its all sorted though :happy2:
