Then get the alignment set properly. Consider replacing the shocks at the same time.

3 Store unable to assist with billing enquiries, so as suspected, they win that prize.
In the process of moving to O2 so that's them told.*
*Not that they actually give a shit because if they did I wouldn't have had to query six of the last eight bills

Currently 50/50 between 3 and a thin skinned precious little snowflake who was almost mortally wounded when I got a bit snappy at him.
I suspect 3 will win because they are a total bunch of frucktards.

Omega General Help / Re: Problems with LTFT on LPG
« on: 07 March 2024, 02:01:51 »Yes, it has to be when refueling, but I can't imagine what could cause there to be practically no changes in the long-term adjustment no matter how much I add or cut, and also if I demand power the STFT drops drastically when it should go up.I would check the plugs if only to rule them out. Start with the side that's showing the trim discrepancy. Do you have any LPG filters fitted between the evaporator and the injectors? And if so where/how.
The spark plugs have 20,000 km, so I doubt it could be
Also do you have any live data for the LPG side of things... Injector timings etc.

If they sell alot of it then the blend might vary alot according to the conditions.
The fact that the behaviour changed after refueling suggests that's the cause.
As an aside have you changed the plugs recently as LPG requires a much stronger spark than petrol and the quality of the combustion on one bank would certainly affect the trims.

« on: 06 March 2024, 19:15:16 »That suggests a fuel issue then although it sounds like the Italian tune up has made the LPG ECU think about what it's doing.What's the thermostat doing? Coolant temp at ECU sensor Vs radiator temp Vs evaporator temp...
When did the issue start? ie sudden climatic change or just refuelled or change of use of the car...
The car temperature is fine. The problem came after refueling, I observed an increase in consumption and looked at how the LTFTs were. It is not the first time that it happens, it seems that they change the proportions at will and it is time to tweak, but this time the usual does not work and does not seem to lead to greater contributions or cuts
Perhaps fill the next tank from a different supplier and see if it improves further.
Incidentally does LPG get varied according to season

« on: 06 March 2024, 10:52:37 »Nice of you to chime in to have a pop.You have acquired the wrong sensor for your car.
Really? Well I never......
Helpful - as always....
Apologies if my original reply was a bit too succinct for some but as TB expanded, that's is why it's the wrong sensor.

Bodged wasn't quite the right word, but it could be that something someone had previously done was exacerbated when you did it...
Reusing a bolt once might be reasonable, but if you reused it not know that it had already been reused a couple of times might be enough to get out of whack as an example

Not wishing to be a Debbie Downer, but sounds like it could be a result of a bodged belt change
