Hesitation at low revs - UK TT


Need4Speed

Recommended Posts

I've had a search and found Big Num had a similar problem to this 5 years ago but the thread contained no result.

 

The car has had new plugs, NGK - BCPR7ES - gap 0.7mm, coil-pack connectors overhauled etc. and now it has a hesitation at low revs except with very light throttle. Once the boost is up, and particularly on the second turbo it's revving cleanly as it should.

 

The symptoms are hesitancy and the odd pop from the exhaust. Is this a low-revs fueling issue and if so what could be causing it? I don't have any afr measuring kit.

 

There are no stored error codes.

get yourself on a dyno with a a/f and check the fueling :) thats a good place to start. also check for boost leaks and things like that.

 

i bought an a/f gauge a year or so back. imo best thing you can buy before you start playing with the car :)

Sounds like closed loop overfuelling caused by a manky oxygen sensor. There is a tech article that shows you how to check your fuelling under these conditions using a multimeter on the diagnostics port :)

There are 2 x O2 sensors on the UK TT, part numbers below.

 

89465-19595 Oxygen Sensor - Rear

89465-19605 Oxygen Sensor - Front

 

Thanks Nic, mine's only got the front one. A dodgy decat/recat in its history and the second sensor's no longer there!

I'm not very familiar with the UK spec Supra, is 2nd sensor after the 1st cat? I'm just wondering if only running the first sensor would effect the ECU and be causing some of the symptoms you are having.

Nic, I'm going to put the 2nd sensor back in as, if nothing else, it will remove the permanent error code 27. Here's a diagram of where it is.
