so i got my car serviced about a month back after a bunch of crap from the dealer i got the car back "fixed" and then that same say i got SES p0302 they took it back said nothings wrong brought me the car back and bam it pops back up as it idles in my driveway. they took it back again and replaced coil and plug.

so a few days ago i was lookin at my trip im getting about 180ish miles and about a 1/4 tank left. seems crazy low mc****ty MPG

I have a Scan Gauge 2 and it shows;

7 Deg timing
181 deg engine temp
737 RPM
Closed Loop

Cleaned maf and checked plug and coil that was replaced today. maf was a lil dirty but still get that low 7deg timing.

 

7 degrees base timing? Wonder if a reflash will fix that?

 

need a consult or just do the relearn/reset thing?

 

Save yourself the trouble go back to the dealer and tell them WTF!?

 

well if it was something simple i am trying to avoid goin back to that $h!t hole.

 

Yea but you payed those b!tches and probably way too much so they have to make sure everything's perfect now.

 

getting to make things "perfect" last time was a pain in the *** it was over two weeks. I'm not gunna spend a day of crap if its something i can do in 5-10 mins ya know

 

You can't change the timing without a Consult II.

 

ya but i wouldn't just knock itself to 7deg you can only go + or - 2 anyways, right?

 

Are you talking about the base timing at idle? What is the coolant temperature? Check the timing just after the coolant fan comes on. I have found that base timing stays low if the temperature is not about 200F Since you have scangauge, you can check it easily.

 

its a little cold out her about 32 deg idk kif it will get to 200

 

ok i did an IAV and timing is back to 17deg @625 rpm at operating temp so we will see if it sticks

 

IAV?

 

sorry i meant IAV relearn Intake air volume

 

Do you have a link to that procedure handy?

 

for some reason i cant seem to find it i printed it out this morn but now can find it with search
