First attempt....
See attached carsoft diagnostic report - if you can assist.
I dont think there is anything particularly private/uncocher around publishing any of this stuff hey?

I ran through the full diagnosis but it didnt manage to find quite a few of the "tentacles"- should they be there or not?
For the ERROR ones - I went through individually and then for completeness went through the OK ones.

I''ll have to readup on some of my codes. The PSE was swapped out - so I'm guessing they just have to be cleared.
I was hoping for an automatic transmission one for the 722.6 - but nothing.

Am I right in thinking I have to replace a couple of O2 sensors tho?

 

I ge a "Corrupted File" warning from Acrobat X and Reader 10.

 

I get not supported file type or damaged file.

 

you have to "save to disk" and then change the file extension from "pdf" to "pda". Then you have to open it on a computer where Carsoft is installed.
I didnt have acrobat loaded at the time on the analysing computer.
Will endeavour to do so so I can print to Acrobat and make it a tad easier.

 

I re-ran the analysis today for ME (O2 sensors specific focus (P200F & P2082), then started the car and reran. Still got there error. I then went into real time data mode and reviewed the O2 outputs.
The pre cat ones are all over the shop, jumping around between 0.15 and 0.7V, whereas the post cat ones are showing 0.7 and 0.65 for Bank 1 and 2 respectively, with very little (+/-0.05) variation. Interesting the difference between banks too.
The fault is coming up from the pre cat ones, and I suspect it might be back again after clearing the codes when I check in a few days.

Will wait and see.

OK - deleted codes and renewed service counter.
Will check later in the week.

Another thing that threw me was the manifold pressure....sitting at 30kPa at Idle (and in Park) and then going up to 160kPa at boost around 2-3000rpm when driving. I'm still not sure what's going on here. Is 30kPaA actually 70kPa below atmospheric? That's a hell of a lot of suck and too much for my mind when air intake is so small a volume at these low rpms. I mean this 70kPa drop is occuring from the point of measurement (manifold) to the inlet of the air intakes.....far too much!

I recall manifold pressures should usually be around 5kPa below atmospheric or 96kPaA.
The 160kPaA seems more realistic for 2500rpm - or 9psi.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Need to get some data capture going on - anything that links into carsoft for realtime logging? Dont want a whole new system - just a lggger to hang off carsoft7.4

 

Well 8months on I finally reran carsoft (attached) it seems I might definetly change my front O2 sensors? Thoughts?
BTW if you're wondering how I got the carsoft into pdf - I did screen grabs and photoshopped them 2gether - then printed the file by pasting it into Excel.

Double checked this - sure enough its sitting around 30kPa at idle-Park....way low man!
Sure enough foot on the gas and wind her out and I got up to 195kPa.a = 13.6psi at around 5000rpm...still with the laptop on realtime data - so one eye on the road - one eye on the laptop.

Arduino microcontroller - WIP.....but it will have 79 IO (analogue+ digital), usb slot and potential gps + output IO for tricky stuff.

BTW I read that maybe the crossfire guys have trouble running carsoft due to the Mopar thing...if you dont - have a look at God_Likes_Tebow's post here.....I've added some links for a D630+MB StarDiagnose setup.

 

So I found some "good priced" O2 sensors today.
just like to check the Bosch 16167 is the right one or if there's a better alternative...

bump....bump

looking for a good reliable link for a socket as well.

well got some bosch 16167 sensors on the way...USD$200 on amzon incl. postage.

Looking for the correct socket to do the job.

What size are we talking here? 7/8ths or 22mm...?...
Is length a consideration?

I'll be going for a 1/2" or 3/8th drive.

 

Just checked. the O2 sensor socket I use says 7/8" (22mm)

Sorry I couldn't have chimed in with the sensor info. I haven't had to change mine (yet), so didn't know the Bosch number.

 

changed front sensors on the weekend - sweet they came antisieved from the factory......
me thinks placebo effect at the moment - havent as yet rescanned with carsoft - but "feels smoother"...
