xantia v6 info needed...

[citroenxm]

Hi v6 owners...

I have an ongoing issue with my old v6.... Which the current owner is still having. The car has a cold engine missfire which does clear when warm and doesnt come back till very cold again.. Ive fitted plugs and an inlet gasket when i had her.. Now the new owner has apparently tried two coil packs to no avil.. She still does it for him... So i guess we need a lexia session.. How ever i could do with some info like parameter readings from someones healthy v6 so i can compare..

So anyone with a P or R reg mk.1 v6 and a lexia who can take down the two screens of live parameters for me?? You dont have to write anything down.. A mobile phone camera takes a good enough picture if it has a good camera..

Heres hoping

thanks

It doesn't need to me a MK1 Paul, the MK2 uses exactly the same injection and ignition..

I can do the honours for you tomorrow if you wish but it'll be on an early MK2...

I have never really used a diagnostic machine ..

Thats a start John, but for a Pug 406... Is that an early 406 or a later VVT one?

I could ideally do with COLD START readings, as the engine is fine when warm!

Thanks for those John.. Ill load them to my phone and keep them handy..

I may have some more, but I may let Jim or others take over from this point

And HNY to you John

Yep, I'll do but can't right now as mine is still hot after a blast to Somerset and back today....

With Lexia3 I should be able to capture the screenshots electronically rather than take screen photos. We'll see...

Ive got Lex 3 Jim, but not seen screen shot capture....

Much appriciated Jim.. Thanks

Hi Paul, this is my V6 cold and just after startup..

Injection Information:



Ignition information



Sensors:



And finally, driving parameters although the car was not moving at the time...



'Fraid the engine warmed a bit whilst this was going on.

Don't forget that even from just off ciold the Oxygen Sensor will be cyclically varying between about 100mV and 850mV.

Hope that helps...

I trust they'll help you correct the problem...
