Title: 1.8T Cold weather Start-ups (93 octane) Post by: kenmac on December 02, 2012, 11:06:16 AM As the cold weather sets in, I've noticed poor ignition for about 1-2 seconds while cranking. I noticed if apply some throttle while cranking, this seems to shorten the rough start.
This is a stage 3 tune for a AWP 1.8T. (2003 20th anniversary GTI). 1000cc EV14 injectors. 044 fuel pump in-line. My KRKTE and TVUB values appear to be spot on... 0.00 at idle and -0.1 at run. I am trying to get a better understanding how the warm-up enrichment maps work. Reading through the FR seemed to help a bit, but then comparing the appropriate tables between the 2.7T and 1.8T platforms really lost me. For example, see the attached image of a FKSTT comparison between the S4 and GTI and TT225. Why are the data points for the 1.8T so non-linear? I'd like to adjust this map, along with KFWKSTT, but I'm not really sure what direction I should move the factor. Plus I'm really lost as to why OEM would have a factor of +32 at -10degC while at 0degC there's a factor of only 0.045. This makes me nervous to make any changes at all. I'll see if I can somehow log whether or not I'm rich or lean during cranking (I assume too rich?), though the O2 sensor will be cold.

Title: Re: 1.8T Cold weather Start-ups (93 octane) Post by: kenmac on December 05, 2012, 01:11:53 PM I thought this would generate more interest. The 2.7T FKSTT seems to be predictable and consistent while the 1.8T FKSTT seems to make no sense at all.
Title: Re: 1.8T Cold weather Start-ups (93 octane) Post by: sn00k on December 05, 2012, 06:29:28 PM try adding +1 to the adress you have for that FKSTT map, i.e if its located on 154CD, then make it 154CE
..and watch the magic.. ::) (ive found 6-7 definitions with this error.. so far..) Title: Re: 1.8T Cold weather Start-ups (93 octane) Post by: kenmac on December 05, 2012, 10:32:27 PM Oh man... :-\ Thank you! That did it.
I have 3 different OEM 1.8T files with this error. Glad I didn't try changing any values. Title: Re: 1.8T Cold weather Start-ups (93 octane) Post by: sn00k on December 06, 2012, 03:27:14 AM youre welcome! :)
