Check Control: Fuel after Tune

Yiruna · 04-19-2018, 10:49 PM

Hey, so I just recently tuned the car after my OBD unlock but I got a Check Control fuel notification (not check engine light?)

Any idea what this means?

Tune is BM3

Have downpipe, ic and CP installed

Online recode.

What does that do exactly?

I got the same thing online recode gets rid of the error

This apparently is a glitch for some doing "offline" coding. It is fixed by reflashing the car via "online" coding. I had the same issue.

This Brooke guy has the weirdest trolling habits, I swear.

I ended up ignoring him, he's too weird, gets too offended easily and thinks everyone is wrong.

Most all of us got the fuel error after initial flash...a few seconds with the online re-code and it is corrected. And the power curve is one of the best I have felt for the F87 platform. The boost smoothness from 14.5-17.2 psi is better than stock. The power under the curve is the money maker

Did you log to see what could be causing it. Possibly plug gap for low fuel target pressure?

I did not . May I ask is one step colder plug and gap to 0.18 a must? I think I will do it ASAP

On stage 2 it is recommended if you experience misfires. I assume you have a FMIC so your IAT's are manageable? I have not had misfires as of yet but my car only has 3800 miles and only on tune for 2 months. Also not tracking just hard mountain driving
