Revo stock isnt stock????????????

[Hedge]

Hey Mr Heavyd I'm not having a dig at you here. 

I believe it has been said that any Revo dealer can flash you back to stock but may charge for labour.

[heavyd]

why do you think the HPFP is @ fault?

I dont, I just took the internals out to make sure that wasnt causing an issue. I found a Post on the net that a bloke had the same fault code and it was down to the autotech internals. Plus all the scare mongering that was going on about the autotech internals lately, I thought I'd buy an apr one to be safe than sorry. Instead of forking out again, I might just stick with stage 2 if I can get that to work ok, it did on VRs carls car. I've decided to do away with the 'I want a nice graph' to 'I want a car without an engine light on'
Looks like I might have to make the hour drive to the next dealer at 2000rpm then. I'll try and ring dave another 10 times tomorrow he might pick up the phone hopefully

Can any dealer flash the ecu to stock etc, as I dont think I'm in Daves good books at the minute

Any dealer can do it and im happy to do it, but dont think you are not in my good books, you are welcome to pop in at any time and get help or advice, same as anyone else. But as much as I enjoy my job I do need a bit of spare time to myself and with the family, hence not answering calls on a Sunday. Today I have missed 27 calls from unknown numbers on my mobile in the space of leaving it at home for 3 hours to go to the unit and get things ready for the new dyno install  

If you like I can do a full factory flash tomorrow. And unlike some claim, this will be a full factory stock file. There will be no charge for this, or to go back to a tuned stage software at a later date, however we do have to charge for time if you want us to dyno test/datalog and set it up again.

It makes good sense to stick with Dave @ PDT - I have no direct experience of him but he clearly sounds like he knows his onions and has an extremely helpful attitude.

IF, and it is a big IF, you decide for your own reasons to go elsewhere I recommend JKM in Portsmouth as both Revo and Bluefin dealers and a very well established excellent reputation with the 2.0T FSI platform. But only IF - I'm absolutely not suggesting you dump PDT but rather that you stick with him if you can.

Thanks Dave, I only rang as you said the other day that you were working on Sunday, my apologies. I'll  come through tomorrow

Heavyd dude take your car to Dave, he will sort it im sure. Do let us know what the findings are though bud. Hope its something simple. Keep us posted!

Have you had a look to see if there is fuel in your oil, or even changed the oil?

The oil smelled of oil, and was very low when I checked it. 40,000 mile service due in a few weeks so was gonna wait until then for an oil change. From what I've read oil levels go up when petrol gets mixed in, and I only topped it up about 6 weeks ago, and then again last week.

I've been having a scout round and it seems, as you found, a few of these codes have been attributed to faulty Pp's.  I know you've swapped the pump out but if the damage has been done and there is a high fuel content in the oil you may be on a wild goose chase.

The pump I took out was fine, I'm ordering a new PCV tomorrow aswell, and getting flashed back to stock. I was in 2 minds anyway whether to get a new oem pump or an apr one, but the oil smells fine to me so wasnt sure whether to go down that route. I'll see if it passes Daves nose test tomorrow!

I tried:

New OEM HPFP
New lambda
New injector seals
New pcv
Oil change

Still had the fault though.

HeavyD, where abouts are you?

[heavyd]

Sounds like some money was spent there . I'm in the north east Alex. Sounds like It's going to cost me some money

[vRSAlex]

If the fault comes on with the stock map then you know its the map at fault.  If it is the map, then revo will help you out the best they can.

[heavyd]

Oh well, Dave flashed a stock map back onto the car, thanks Dave
Thos logs show it is more of a stock map than the last!
But the interesting this is that my lambda values mave changed a lot.
Lambda on idle has gone from -6.6 to 0.8 andpartial from 0.8 to 3.5.
Since its the idle that was causing the problem and running too rich, looks like my car is allergic to Revo, I'll see what happens in the next few days with the fault. looks promising

Bluefin ftw.
