cplmadison Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) Ok, so my ELM 327 cable arrived and I ran a few different diagnostic programs on it. My engine sometimes stutters on acceleration like it isnt running on all cylinders and then clears, the mpg is also lower than expected (about 6-7mpg less) Here are the pics: The things concerning me are the MAF is showing anywhere from 11 - 15g/s on idle from cold The absolute throttle position is showing 94.9% on idle There was also a P0513 showing intermittantly on 1 program only, which seems to correspond to the immobiliser key. I did have a problem a few days back where the car started and immediately stopped so I assume this is what it was. This problem seems to have gone away. Should I be worried about the readings I have found? Im not sure what they should be, although I assume the throttle should read 0% or close to it on idle? The MAF reading from other forums on other cars seems to be only 1g/s on idle? appreciate any help Im worried theres some fueling problem or MAF issue I have the VW TDI CRD PD engine if it helps (same as the Audi A4, Skoda etc) I seem to remember this didnt happen before I changed the air filter. I had to chop the rubber sill down a bit to get the lid closed as it was ASHIKA branded and "compatible part" not a 100% perfect fit Edited April 2, 2015 by cplmadison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigtsr Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 There are a number of European owners of both Dodge Journeys(pre-Fiat) and Fiat Fremonts (export models) that have diesel models that frequent this site occasionally so possibly one will answer back.

cplmadison Posted April 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 thanks I hope someone can help, I looked up the Fiat Freemonts but they are sold in the non english speaking parts of europe so hard to find the info im after.. from what I have been reading on different cars they seem to be getting less than 3 g/s on idle so something looks wrong. I'll wait and hope some euro type people can help I did phone Chrysler dealer in the UK and they said they only deal in PSI not g/s so couldnt help me. Very useful if Chrysler dont even know they answer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cplmadison Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 (edited) well I have done a little more research.. I have ordered a new Accelerator Pedal (with built in sensor P/N 04891586AB) for £29.99 off ebay dealers wanted £90 so a good deal I have also purchased a MAP sensor (P/N 038906051C) as both of these things were giving incorrect readings hopefully these will fix my problem, if not im going to have to take the MAF out and give it a clean :P This is on top of changing my discs, pads, painting calipers, fuel filter, oil change, power steering fluid change..... im going to be very busy :P i listed the part numbers incase anyone in euro land is needing the same parts Edited April 4, 2015 by cplmadison Drich100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
