a mate got mine going just recently. turned out to be, cambelt was half a tooth out, fucked spark plugs, new o2 sensor and new leads. now its going mint.
-
kk sweet as. let us know how it goes.
-
but the check engine light has stopped blinking?
-
any luck??
-
i may be wrong, but if its blinking at consistant intervals i think it means everything's fine and theres no codes. have you unplugged the green and black wires under the dash? to see if it stops blinking.
-
Check to see what code its throwing first. It sounds it's either a big leak past the compressor wheel (unlikely because it would run crap on idle due to it probably getting unmetered air), the waste gate actuator is open slightly all the time or there is a problem with your map sensor.
Check all the boost lines to the map sensor and waste gate actuator. Also check that the waste arm? (I'm not sure if this is what it is called) is still attached to the physical part of the gate in the exhaust.
I would definitely check that code first though.

why arnt you in auckland! hahaha
-
but i dont think it could be timing, because it runs sweet for like a minute, then it starts shitting itself.
-
yup, sounds like its got the exact same problem as yours.
-
hey man, my car's gone back to how it was :'(. you had any luck with yours?
-
i dont know if strong for subaru send stuff. but maybe you could give them a ring. but 600 bucks for a new 1 sounds realllllllyy steep.
-
they have reconditioned 1's on trade me for around 200? what colour AFM does your car run?
-
yeah i wasnt getting any codes either, but like you, was running out of ideas. so thought i would give it a go, and it worked. weather is looking pretty average in aucks this morning. :-\
-
got mine sorted today ;D, i cleaned up my MAP sensor, sprayed the hoses and inside the sensor itself and all the connections around that area with CRC. then i put the car into safe mode. (plugging the 2 connectors under the dash) took it for a drive and it had no codes. put some fresh gas in, unplugged the connectors and adjusted the idle control valve slightly. and she runs mint now.
yeah so maybe try a new MAP sensor, and taking it for a spin to make sure you have no codes.
cheers, Jay

-
is there a kit or anything you can buy? or you have to custom make something?

HAHAHA!!! definatly!
i also found it so crazy how that cop could give that guy a $150 ticket without any proof of the guy doing anything?!
Easy
2 witnesses gave sworn statements and are prepared to go to court...
above comment. just my view point, not looking for an arguement.
-
just wondering if anybody has relocated their power steering reservoir? how did you do it? maybe a pic?
cheers, Jay
-
haha it was, her and her son. they were they 2 witnesses, i wasnt blaming the whole police force, just thought it was pretty rough how he could give him a ticket based on somebodies word, without facts.

how about the plug wires and inside of the plug that clips onto the icv? have you tried adjusting the icv?
-
definalty look at the wires around your ecu for the green wire with the black strip. make sure theres none cut or burnt out, and have you checked the wires to your icv. and the plug itself?
-
use to have similar fault with my car. was the vehicle speed sensor though (code 33), the idiot that owned my car before me had a speed cut defender in when i test drove it and purchased it, but when i went to pick it up it was fine until i started engine breaking down a hill. then the check engine light came on and it brought up code 33 and 24? the idle just went shocking and went into safe mode (couldnt rev over 4500).
turned out the idiot that previously owned my car had just cut the defender out of the car after i put a deposit on it, without connecting the wire back up. look down near your ecu. under your front passenger carpet and look for a green wire with a black strip on in and make sure its not burnt out or cut.
another thing you can try is reseting your ECU. disconnect your negative battery terminal and pump you brakes a few times and then leave disconnected over night. just a thought hope this might help?
-
does the idle control valve on a version 3 need to have metered air going to it or can i just put a small breather on it?
thanks in advance.
