Soft code on my old ecu is 05611, should I adjust it back to this?

05712 is euro a6 with abs and esp. You need to recode it to 05611 (euro s4 without ESP). That should solve a lot of your can-bus problems. You'll still need to 0 CW_CAN_R (located @ 0x12C7A, original value 32 IIRC) to eliminate the p1650 error.

There's a possibility the ecu won't accept your original softcoding, as the M-box is a NA (North American) flash. If your changes won't take effect (softcoding doesn't change after selecting DO IT), use 06611, which is functionally identical (the only difference being the 06, which denotes a NA flash)

Which faults?

You can click "copy codes" then paste them... you dont have to do the silly screen shot junk

and btw, you can screen shot using "print screen" button.. taking a picture of your monitor is also rather silly

Increasing boost has a way of bringing existing deficiencies to the surface. That's why it's important to verify everything is in good mechanical order first (new plugs with proper gap, 1 heat range colder, good VCG's, etc).

Hay guys sorry I haven't posted in awhile been a crazy few weeks. I'm running .015 in gap on my plugs to keep from having misfires under full boost. Once I do my tsi coil conversion I will set my gaps back to .025 or maybe even .030

Ya I'm thinking they are junk also I get a random cyl 2 misfire if it idles for too long so I'm hoping the tsi coils with the right value changes in my file will help.

EDIT:

Tune seems to make the car throw misfires after 10psi. Precat o2 did just go bad, but when i swap back to the giac-x ecu, misfires go away.

Placed an order for o2 sensors so im going to see if thats whats making the tune misfire like crazy.
Just found it odd the misfires go away with the giac-x tune.

You will need to gap your plugs to down to get rid of the misfires under boost. Not sure what boost your giac file is running but mine hits and hold 20psi the will taper off to 13 so if your plugs have too large if a gap the higher cylinder pressure will blow out your spark causing the misfires. I went through the same problem with my S4.

I can't believe I didn't think of that. Yea the giac file is boosting around 17. And the gap is at .28. Just curious, what did you gap yours at , 25?

Thanks in advance. Most defin appreciate.

I'm running .015 but you can try .020.


on a plus note new plugs with a closer gap seemed to have cured my missfire. just trying to go through and get rid of the fault codes i am having due to having a flashed a6 ecu in my early b5 s4.

Right on that's good it fixed your misfires. That's cool your running an a6 ecu. I'm running an M box on my 2000 s4  and just had to recode it to eliminate the Abs fault because the 00 doesn't have ESP like the 01 does.
