Hi Guys,
Let me give you all as much info as possible:
I have an 09 S3 and have started feeling hestiation between 3000-5000rpm every so often...
This only began occuring after I fitted the Forge Intake, and the HPFP. Now i took the complete pump off my 08 S3 (which already had the uprated internals from Autotech) and just swapped it out with the 09 Pump.
Having run diagnostics I can confirm the following:
Intake temps are spot on perfect.
Fuel rail pressure is spot on perfect (requested v actual).
No problem at all with the MAF...flowing around 225.
Boost is spot on perfect (requested v actual).
And lastly there are no fault codes at all except that it is pulling around 8 to 9 degrees timing in the midrange.
Had the REVO Stage 2+ software loaded which only made the problem worse hence why i've resorted back to stock software until I can sort out the problem.
We suspect that the problem is either the spark plugs or the coilpacks which will be tested tomorrow. Has anyone perhaps have any other ideas of what it could be?? I want to make sure that the dealer checks over any possible problem (and you know how dealers are...if you dont ask they wont check).
PS do the 09 S3's run a different fuel pump to the 08 S3's?? (part numbers would be appreciated)...perhaps the pumps aren't interchangeable?
Thanks
