People tell me they can smell Optimax from the exhausts when I drive by or they are behind me, fuel consumption is just the usual for a TT and the ecu reports no faults.

 

Cats are off as well, is normal? Car runs fine as well.

greg will let you know when he comes along

Is it bad?

Sounds like it's overfuelling. Maybe get a Conzult check done on your O2 sensors...

 

Steve :)

i wouldnt have thought it was good, my guess is that the petrol aint getting burnt up properly

 

someone with more knowledge (like greg) will let you know in more detail

Cheers lads, I'll await the gurus.

but i lurve that car in your sig, what wheels are they, and spoiler is great

It's a full wings west kit on the car mate, as for wheels I have absolutely no idea they were on it when I got it as was the kit.

Overfuelling. Most likely causes are failed o2 sensors or Temp sensor. Could also be the Fuel Dampner.

DAZsw,s wheels are axe ap30,s 9.5" rears and either 8 or 8.5" fronts 18,s all round. got same wheels on mine.

get the o2 sensors checked on a consult check both banks are running correclty,if they are at fault the ECU will over compensate and add more fuel

 

rarely is it the fuel dampner! more likey the above,as said rule it out with a consult,ecu basic diagnosis wont show this

Ok got a consult done for free and both O2 sensors need changed, what's the cheapest I can get these for people?
