Last weekend I cut the overheating crimped terminal off the alternator/battery cable and managed to solder it back on. Charging and starting are much better now
I was hoping (am hoping?) that sorting the charging out would magically improve the fuel consumption so I have been checking the live data.
The first thing that cropped up was an 0420 code. After I had cleared it I realised that I hadn't noticed a warning light. Does the ECU in the 3.2 store pre-codes?
Today I checked the live data again - no codes - but I noticed that the throttle position never goes below 5%. As a comparison I also checked my 2.6 and that does go down to 0%.
Ignore the battery voltages - I didn't start either engine, the 3.2 is still recovering since I fixed the battery terminal and the self levelling air compressor was running on the 2.6
