NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Jesus, glad you’re alright. Great reminder for the group. Probably couldn’t pull a needle out of your ass with a tractor when that happened lol

 

I almost literally shit myself.

 

Damn lol record scratch, freeze frame- this is me when I nearly pooped my pants.

 

Not gonna lie, I like that.

 

This month

 

Same. I like GXs on 24s too but im not sure thats how i want to live my life.

 

Neither. I got actual sick. It sucked.

 

I’m considering

I dony hate that.

Glad you here you’re safe. Time to upgrade jackstands.

 

Let me know, It definitely needs to be adjusted but i think that my heavy right foot and laughing at the black smoke is hurting me more than anything.

 

The values that the egr uses to open and close need to be maxed out so it doesn’t open. Same with the fueling rate.

Stolen from the TDI club forum:


Idle Injection Quantity: Larger nozzles will deliver more fuel than the ECU thinks that itís delivering. By changing the idle injection quantity (which is sort of a misnomer), youíre recalibrating some constants in the ECU relating to fuel delivery which results in better idle speed control and, depending on the state of your particular engine, less smoke.
With your engine idling and warm (very important!) and all accessories off, hook up your VagCom and go to 01 ñ Engine. Login using 12233. Go to ìAdaptationî and select Block 1. The adaptation value should be at a default of 32768, and you should see a field indicating the amount of fuel being injected in mg/R. Itís a good idea to get the injected quantity in the range 3.0 ñ 5.0 mg/R. Modify the adaptation value by 100 at a time and press ìTestî to see what happens to the injected quantity. To make the injected quantity go up, you reduce the adaptation value by 100. Play with this until you get in the range, and hit ìSaveî. If you canít get within the range, get as close as possible (there is a minimum and maximum adaptation value), and as long as your engine runs OK, donít worry about it.
EGR Adjustment: At idle and part-load situations, the EGR system recycles some of the exhaust gas into the intake. This reduces NOx emissions. Itís possible to reduce the amount of EGR so that there is less exhaust recirculated and more fresh air. More air is good, because your larger nozzles mean more fuel! (Note: this is a good idea even for stock engines, since less EGR means less soot to gunk up the intakeÖ do a search for ìmanifold cloggingî on Fredís for details if youíre not familiar with the problem.)
With your engine idling and warm (very important!) and all accessories off, hook up your VagCom and go to 01 ñ Engine. Login using 12233. Go to ìAdaptationî and select Block 3. Give the throttle a quick punch to the floor (if the car idles too long the EGR system turns offÖ this turns it back on.) The default adaptation should be 32768, and the screen should indicate an actual flow rate of around 250 mg/R. Enter 33768 as the new value, hit ìTestî, and the flow rate should increase. Hit ìSaveî and youíre done.P

 

Heard it slam shut in Tacoma!
Glad you’re ok.

 

My version of VAGCOM can definitely do what you posted above. Worst case scenario (if you don't find anyone with the unlimited VIN version), you can use a VIN on mine for $100 (it's $200 for three VINs and I only have one VIN left). Added bonus, if you do that you can borrow it anytime to do more fiddling.

Oh wait, what year is your TDI? Certain years don't have the VIN stored in the ECU so it doesn't count against the three.

 

Why do I find VAGCOM so damn funny every time I see it?

 

I'm hoping to get some VAGCOM tonight

hello vag can you hear me?
yes, exulted one

 

Id go with @Capt. Obvious 's offer since Im not sure when Ill see him again let alone borrow his laptop for the weekend.....let alone make it your way lol

Just saying VAG (volkswagen auto group) is fun

 

That’s no good, we needed someone to brave the first run over.

If you want to try on a weekend day hit me up. Maybe on the 27th before the brewery?

 

sketch man.

I had a oh shit moment last year. In a rush and wasn't thinking things through all the way. nothing fell but I had a sway going that terrified me.

glad you're ok!

 

Conspiracy theory podcasts make the work day fly by..... and makes my head hurt....

 

Got a set of 2019 TRD Pro Tacoma Fox Shocks for sale if anyone is interested. 4 Miles on them.

 

I finally caved in and made a build thread.

Although I realized some of the photos that look great on my phone look shitty on desktop. Will have to fix that later tonight.
