How do you know if you have this, what are all of the symptoms?

How can you check if you have it? any tests you can do etc

Do a ecu check if you get code 34 = det sensor

Code34 will only show if det sensor or its harness has failed. It does not show if you had had Detonation.

 

Detting is audible, kind of like the sound of lots of metal screws being shaken in a tin can.

Thats a similar noise to what im getting, is there any way to check for definate?

 

Any other symptoms to look out for?

you would be better going to a rolling road and get them to check your afr and they will listen for det with an aftermarket det sensor

 

worth spending 40 odd quid to find out for definate

thats what i was going to say next, the engine may be jap, therefore you should be running super

 

but then again, its still a uk ecu, so shouldnt really make a difference (should it)

either way i always use optimax anyway.

Always have while ive had the car.

Well the engine is currently under warranty so if it is something like the engine is fooked it will go back.

fair enough bud

Just been out with the datascan.

Results will be put up in a separate post.

 

It said - car started 29times with the error code 12 AFM

Apparently this could cause the rattling - someone said

 

Also still got the TPS even though ive taken off and cleaned slightly (not that much as dont have stuff here to clean it with

why would the engine make any difference, they are the same, differences are all in the ECU.
