I've tried to run Torque using a bluetooth OBDII reader, but it will not talk to my 2006 ECU. Any one know if there is a work around?

My car has being running pretty rough lately (rough idle and knocking under load/acceleration)
Wondering if anyone could give some tips from my techstream data. Coolant temp was still rather low, plan on doing more checks today so can post more data if that will help? Also when running the active fuel leak test, it sounds like a conrod is about to come out the side of the block

After doing some more checks it isn't looking good at all for my injectors, wondering if anyone here can recommend a diesel mechanic for Perth's nothern suburbs?
Or any more info they could provide me from looking at this data below.

Geez, what coolant temp can hide the first time around hey. Yep, I'd say your injectors are well and truly stuffed. 2 injectors are over-fuelling or "leaking" heavily and 1 is probably clogged or not working at all. This is confirmed by your injection volume, should be between 5-12 mm3/stroke. Time to give Baileys Diesel a ring for a set of their injectors. They can also recommend fitters in your area.

by **swhilux** on Sat, 07 Jun 2014 3:53 +0000

What year and kms has she done mate? And what was she running like?
I hear Fremantle diesels is good. Not sure about price though. I watched a mechanic do a set a while ago and it all seemed pretty straight forward if you have good mechanical knowledge and willing to research the method and follow all the advice. The only tricky bit was cleaning the seats out properly. I'll be doing my own using BDG injectors as soon as the feedback values start playing up.

Mine is an 05 model with 280,000. Try to change my oil & filter every 5 thousand but no to sure what sort of life it had before I purchased it last year.
Runs nice some time and runs like a pig at other times. My fuel light came on recently for the first time since i've had it, I replaced the filter as quick as I could but it seems since then the knocking has got louder. I pretty confident I could replace them myself but hoping to actually confirm what issues it has. Don't want to replace the injectors and find out the pump is stuffed or has already cause internal damage or something.
Unfortunately Fremantle is nearly the other end of the earth for me, will try doing some research and see if I am able to find anyone around Wangara/Malaga.
Thanks for the replies.

by **swhilux** on Sun, 08 Jun 2014 6:24 +0000

There will be someone surely, I wouldn't drive it until it's fixed mate. Last thing you need is a hole blown in a piston. Good luck with it all

by **mattwhite** on Tue, 10 Jun 2014 2:43 +0000

I'll be straight up, I'm a mechanic so I'm quite hesitant asking opinions on a forum, and my work mates tell me I'm being overly fussy but that's what I do.
3/ 09 KUN, 96***km's.
Has always smoked more than I would have liked. Put it off for a bit and did the cheap stuff first like entire intake clean, MAF and boost filter clean. Still just the same. Never had a bad rattle but just like things to be right. My feedback values when I checked were a little off (about +2) on 1 cylinder.
Finally bought some injectors and checked the tappets at the same time. Everything went well, coded up fine.
What my concern is, when I start it cold, it seems to me like it's missing. Not a dead misfire, but doesn't sound right. On the scanner I can see the comp values go to +2 on cylinder 1 and -2 on number 4 and the roughness seems to go. I'm assuming there's a problem with cylinder 1 and the ECU is adapting or trying to even things out by taking fuel from the companion cylinder. More than welcome to be corrected on this.
I drive it fine on the road with no change to the comp values. Next time I come to a complete stop it seems to be running rough again but watching the data a can see the values return to near perfect and it runs smoothly.
Is it normal for the values to only correct themselves at idle? Am I being paranoid? Is it ok for the values to be a bit "larger" when cold? Does anyone have experience in these things running rough only when cold? Mine is a pre pilot injection learn so is it these symptoms that made that feature become available?
I've done a few sets of injectors at work on hilux's, cruisers and tritons with no comebacks but you never analyse other peoples cars day in, day out like you're own. In some ways I'm happy to learn on mine.

Sorry for the long post. Any input is appreciated. Always open to learning more.

by **StevenS** on Tue, 10 Jun 2014 2:54 +0000

Could be the injectors aren't sealing properly - when you swapped them did you clean out the where the injector sits inside the head to be near (if not) spotless? Even brand new injectors will give high feedback values if they dont seat properly (this will also cause carbon buildup on your sump screen over time which can kill your engine).

This is all assuming when you bought the injectors you bought new o-rings and copper seats as well. If you didn't, do so asap

by **mattwhite** on Tue, 10 Jun 2014 4:13 +0000

All new gaskets, seals etc. might have to rip the rocker cover again. Hadnt thought of that. Never had a problem before. I normally just wipe with a rag wrapped around a screwdriver then a quick spray with brake clean.

Thanks for the input.

by **tonymtber** on Wed, 11 Jun 2014 6:31 +0000

Ok here's my data. Did it this time with a warm engine & at idle.

Looks pretty good to me. Vehicle has done a bit over 140k.

For those in the know...is there anything that I should be aware of?

Mattwhite, I think I experience the same thing as you on start up if I leave the vehicle sit for hours. I don't notice it idling but as soon as I take off it kinda has 1 miss but recovers instantly and doesn't do it again. Injector as far as I know they are the original injector to the vehicle (2007) and still well within spec.

First I thought it may of been SCV but have ruled that out but starting to think it's something to do with my fuel filter setup as it never used to do it when I first bought the vehicle. Let me know if its similar to your problem.

I am having the exact same problem.
New BDG injectors about 2 months ago.
Valves adjusted.
Rattles when cold and idle hunts (hot or cold)
Hooked the laptop up today to check.
New Injector values are up to +/- 5mm when cold, but settle to around +/- 1mm when it warms up.
The rail pressure is all over the place. Up to 5000kpa (700psi) off target pressure.
Spoke to matt at BDG about the problem, confirmed the suction control valve is stuffed. He also said that the injector compensation values are pretty high when cold, but to replace the SCV first and recheck. (they normally only vary by about 1.5-2mm between hot and cold.)
Hopefully a new SCV will be here tomorrow and it fixes the problems.

by **AdamHC** on Thu, 12 Jun 2014 3:22 +0000

Hoping someone may be able to shine some light on my issues. My Hilux has been feeling pretty slow and I've been trying to figure out what's causing it for a while now. From what I've read my techstream results are within spec, however I have pretty slow acceleration. I've cleaned out the MAP sensor filter, cleaned the MAF. This weekend will try changing the fuel filter and clean the SCV. Also thinking of cleaning the EGR. Do you guys see what's causing my problems in this data?

Thanks guys

Looks like you may have an air leak from tappet cover seals or dip stick tube maf is a little low.
Also your injector 2 seal may be leaking or you may have a faulty injector on # 2

What year is yours?

Also your injection fead back for idle is high 3.19 possibly injector leaks.

by **AdamHC** on Fri, 13 Jun 2014 1:46 +0000

2007 with 160,000kms with original injectors still going. The injectors are still within spec though arent they?

I had the vehicle for a couple of months and was learning manual so didn't notice it being low on power, then due to a oil leak replaced the rocker gasket (and injector seals i think as well as they came in the pack), when putting it together we missed a small hose and so the turbo wasn't working properly and it had no power. We took the cover off and saw that hose wasn't plugged in and plugged it in and power was back. But since that I have felt like it's been low on power still but I'm not sure if it's from the work we did or it was already like that before that day.

BUT anyway, how can I test the theory of the tappet cover seal? Do I have to take it off again? And when you say dip stick tube are you talking about the oil dipstick? Do repco sell new ones?

Thanks

by **mattwhite** on Fri, 13 Jun 2014 3:44 +0000

-2.7mm is pretty borderline.

by **StevenS** on Fri, 13 Jun 2014 4:05 +0000

That shows the engine running for over 8 minutes - what are the injector feedback values when it's only been running for less than a minute.

-2.7 at 8 minutes is borderline but it would probably be out of spec when just started

by **AdamHC** on Fri, 13 Jun 2014 4:34 +0000

I'll go plug techstream in now and have a look, should be cold by now.

Also I did find these error codes but all of them say non continuous and not to diagnose. The MAF one would have happened a month or so ago when I cleaned the MAF and a check engine light came on but resolved itself a couple starts later that day. Another may be for the timing belt because the guy at the shop forgot to change the reminder after he replaced it (so I did it myself).
