Re: False flow readings from flow sensor.
Last night, I did a few things....
-Added a second nozzle to be able to inject 100% meth. -Set the P/I-R trim to full IDC. -Removed the flowsensor turbine and tried cleaning it again. Didn't completely disassemble it, but ran more compressed air through it. -Took a piece of wire loom and covered it with several layers of electrical tape. I then placed the whole loom over the flowsensor turbine in hopes that it would shield both the flow sensor and turbine. Once everything was back together and buttoned up, I started the car and the bars on the gauge were going crazy just sitting at idle while waiting for it to warm up. Took it out for a spin, got on the throttle, and the system was spraying fine. The gauge still continued to show false flow after that. I didn't feel like messing with it anymore, so I left it alone and went to bed. Started my car this morning to go to work and everything seemed ok. No bars showing as I let it idle. Left my house and everything still looked good. Once I was on the highway, I opened up on the throttle, system sprayed fine, let off the gas, and the gauge started showing false flow again. 8 and a half hours later, I left work. Started the car, everything looked fine again. Got on the highway, got on the gas, system sprayed fine. When I let off, I was expecting the gauge to go crazy again with false flow. TO MY SURPRISE, IT DIDN'T!!! I tried it a good 5 or 6 times on the way home and everything worked perfectly! I was also able to trigger and set the WL and WH failsafes. I even caught a datalog of when the failsafe tripped in high boost. It worked flawlessly. Now I can finally get to tuning this thing! |

Re: False flow readings from flow sensor.
Weird...
Did you switch something off between the two periods? ac fans, cold start etc?

Re: False flow readings from flow sensor.
It is weird, but I did nothing different.

Please keep an eye on it and post.

Re: False flow readings from flow sensor.
I have false reading too in my car
here a picture of where my sensor is located : |

Re: False flow readings from flow sensor.
Can you unclip the sensor at the FAV and tell me if the false flow reading is still there.

Re: False flow readings from flow sensor.
hotshot I had the fav assembly in the same location (mkv gti) and no matter what I did the false readings wouldn't go away. I moved it all the way to the left (looking at your pic) next to the coolant overflow tank and that solved my problems.

Re: False flow readings from flow sensor.
Do we have a definitive culprit that caused it?
The question still remains: 1) Interference from neighbour noisy cables 2) The sensor turbine is cavitating between the magnetic poles due to vibrations.

Re: False flow readings from flow sensor.
Thanks I will try that.
