Hello All,
I got my ECU reflashed with a custom Koldfire 270 tune on my S240 and have been experiencing stalling at stop lights. My car never stalled before the tune but it seems to developed the habit now. I've only driven the car about 100km's since so perhaps it just needs more time to adjust. When I re-installed the ECU I let the car idle for about 5-10 minutes to let it "learn" but the first time I took it out and just today it stalled twice again stopped at a light. Most of the time the RPM's just drop to low and it stalls so you can't catch it and blip the throttle ... and once today it actually revved up a bit and then stalled. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced the same thing after the tune ... as typically I hear it cures the stalling issue. I might have to bite the bullet and by the cable to I can get a re-tune. BTW ... the AFR's are typically solid at 14.7-14.9 at idle ... but when it stalls I can see the AFR's kind of go wild for a second or two. Any ideas guys?
Other than the stalling issues the tune has been great as there is more torque through the whole range and the car runs very smooth ... when it does idle properly
Cheers,
