Aaron has one of these, that I borrowed, works fine for code reading clearing on engine and Auto box. Don't recall any other ecu's available.

Live data on engine, I didn't see/use any graphs, but the data set seemed comprehensive enough, considering.

Bit late, but if checking lambdas, expect to see the figures oscillating between high and low, once they are warmed up and the engine is up to temp. I would imagine the live data option would give a graph showing that info...?

Bit late though. ::)

Okay here's the Live Data put into a video was easier this way. Will upload the O2 Live Data next.

EDIT: This is from the 3.2 Elite.

What are the expected figures for the MAF when it's reached temperature at idle on a 3.2

Just gone over the live data video on the MAF again. It's fluctuating between g/s 3.75 - 4.0 going by other threads shouldn't it be around 15.00 ? Would this indicate the MAF is on its way out ?

Thanks..

The MAF readings aren't in the same units as the Tech2 guideline figures, so it's hard (read: very) to compare them directly.. yours sounds like about what mine read on the MS509 though, from memory, and it read fine on the Tech2, meaning that number ought to be about right  :y

I'll check what the readings are on mine for you next time I see Chris (as he has my reader)  :y

Hi guys,

I have this scanner on order (hoping it'll arrive today or tomorrow).

i watched a good Eric the Car Guy video and really it's use is to just clue you in. When you're looking at the o2 sensor output for example, youre not really looking at the exact figures. youre just looking to see o2 1 flipping from high to low and o2 2 just staying around zero.

Exactly - computers can't replace human intuition.. so there's a degree of interpretation of stuff you need to do (not always, but a lot of the time)

A code reader can't tell you want is wrong, it can only guide you in diagnosis.

3.0 is about 13kg/hr

Or about 3.6g/s, which I think is the units the MS509 is using.. If my maths is right :)
