georgek 0 Posted April 5, 2008 Hi All, Recently put a new battery and starter motor in, so did the ECU reset. Looking at the figures I'm getting the Ignition Timing seems a bit out of tolerance compared to the Wiki guide. It drops down to 3.8 on occasion, but usually fluctuations between 6 and 4.5. I've attached a log from VAG-COM if anyone wants to stare at lots of numbers. If the timing is out, what do I need to fix it? New TPS? The plugs are due a change so would that help? Car runs absolutely fine as far as I can tell, no hesitation, smooth acceleration throughout the rev range. Thanks George Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dr_mat 0 Posted April 6, 2008 If it runs well, ignore the numbers. If you were using excessive fuel, or it was down on power, or it was pinking then I'd say look further, but otherwise .. move on .. ! And ignition timing at idle is hit and miss anyway. Check it out under full acceleration load - then you'll know if it's running right or not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
