Ah right, i didn't realise you're in holland,lol. It's a great country, I've been to amsterdam more times than i can remember.

I will look at the logs as soon as you get chance to post them

Haha, Amsterdam sure is nice indeed! Since the file is saved as a .csv file it gets kind of messy in the comments. I am also not able to make a link directly as i have not posted 15 posts yet.. Might have to work around that!

Just remove the spaces i guess..

Its from my commute home when I took some autobahn detour. Temperature of my coolant does rise to 103 degrees for a bit when i drove around 200 km/h. Dont know if that is normal or not though..

P1296 fault has returned today after i had reset it yesterday. Freeze frame data is kind of useless, as it only lists a very select number of values..

Freeze frame report generated by Torque for Android
=========================================================

Vehicle VIN: Not present
Vehicle Manufacturer: Unknown
Vehicle Calibration ID: 06A906032SJ

Freeze frame information:
------------------
Fuel Status = 0 byte
Engine Load = 6,275 %
Fuel Trim Bank 1 Short Term = 0 %
Fuel Trim Bank 1 Long Term = -0,781 %
Engine RPM = 1.240 rpm
Speed (OBD) = 1 km/h
End of report.

No coolant temperature is listed which sucks.. I use the android Torque pro app, so if anyone has any idea how to add additional sensors to freeze frame data i would be very happy! Thanks again!

Have you checked the wiring to the CTS?

I'm 99% sure that 2 of the pins feed the gauge on the dash,and the other 2 pins send a signal to the ECU. It's possible that you have a wiring issue on the 2 pins feeding the ECU

I have only checked the connector pins which plug into the CTS. These looked fine, gave them a clean anyway. Cleared my ECU error but it showed up as pending error again when i started the engine... Still have to check pins on the ECU side of things.

I think the connections are probably ok, as your temp readings seem fine. I think maybe it's software related in some way.

I know the car is chipped by a previous owner. I have tried to determine where it was chipped but all i got to know is that it was not done at any of the more well known tuners sadly.. I will eventually go for a stage 2 build so i will remap the car anyway in the future. Its just that i want the car to be in a good spot before i will stress it even more
