Lexia adjustments???

Post by renagade »

I am have a strange problem with my C5 x7. I was wondering if I could make any adjustments to the fuelling with the Lexia. I can only describe what seems to me that on taking my foot of the throttle to slow down and then reapplying the throttle it sounds like an old ford transit just for a couple of seconds then all goes nice and smooth. I think and I say only think that on taking my foot of the throttle to slow down that the fuelling should be off and to me it feels that there is unburnt fuel in the chamber that knocks like hell just for that few seconds that i put my foot on the throttle again. Does any of what I say make any sense ???

Petrol or diesel?

Having asked that I don't think that any adjustments are available.

First things first: lower the expectations of the Lexia system ... although it can do a lot, it can't do what it isn't designed to do ... the car is still quite mechanical at its core, so start from there ...

Straightforward, common stuff first.
Compare live Lexia data with the reference figures, which might give a clue.
MAF sensor perhaps?
