I consistently see quite different readings for long term fuel trim (VCDS block 032) between the 2 cylinder banks on one of my 2.7T cars.
I have NOT seen anything like this on all the other cars (also tuned).
Initially thought coming from using one new one older Bosch O2 sensor. But replaced older with exact same one.
032/3: Adaption Partial Bank 1 Sensor 1 +7.8%
032/4: Adaption Partial Bank 2 Sensor 1 +0.8%
Any practical suggestions (least effort/cost) to determine if one the injectors might be causing the problem?
I am running Bosch EV14 750cc (and yes, I know now that those are not original Bosch, but rather modified; next time, I will get original Bosch (they make 627cc).
I have one extra injector (at some point earlier, i though one injector was bad, so bought an additional one from same source just in case).
All I can think of is:
a) take all injectors out and send in for flow testing (all 7).
b) buy new Bosch ($$$)
c) swap cyl 1-4, log, swap 2-5, log, swap 3-6, log. One of the logs should 'move' the imbalance; swap the spare injector into one of the respective positions. Log. If no change, swap in other position.
Other suggestions?
