Hi, picked up a 2.0 HDI 307 CC the other day for a quick cheap project. Was a non starter (starter motor) and had been sat for months. I've got it going and given the intake sensors a good clean.
Near the manifold, what looks like intake temperature sensor was caked in oily gloop, but what looks like the map was clear.
I know enough on these cars to get me in trouble when I start looking for things but thought I'd clean what I can and give it a scan.
2 things jumped out.
Using an OBD reader, MAF still reports even when unplugged - is this somehow just picking up and reporting what the ECU is assuming? I've resolved the maf fault now but was curious about this observation so thought I'd ask.
And now the title of the post:
I plugged in lexia and had a hell of a shock when I saw the injector corrections. Surely these can't be right?
1. -25
3. +6
4. -49
2. +49
Image is a little distorted as I removed reflections for clarity.
The car is idling lovely and seems to pull OK since sensors were cleaned and found a loose vac line (thanks to an old post response from Marc).
Efficiency as reported by display is in the 50s from normal driving. Got an 11s 0-60 on a private road with passenger (marketed as 10s) so that's not far off the mark for an old car.
Is this a glitch in Lexia or a sign of something going wrong elsewhere?
Lightly touching accelerator bringing it to about 1k rpm, all 4 injectors read exactly -1.56 (or a number similar to that, they were all identical though). I get corrections are there to keep things running but in my limited experience anything beyond 4 starts causing trouble, 50 is bonkers, I'd have expected it to stall or shake itself off the mounts.

Injector corrections seem way beyond plausible

Re: Injector corrections seem way beyond plausible
Oops.. I'm mixing up mg and percentages. These values are probably OK then. Any input welcome
