R32 Gtst Stalling And Power Cutting Out

[barnoon]

Hi guys been having problem with my R32 GTST lately, just some info on it first, stock turbo, gtr front mount, turbosmart bleed valve, pod filter, 3 inch turbo back exhaust, apexi bov.

The problem im having is very intermittent sometimes I can drive with no problems for a whole day ,ive only noticed it happening when the cars warm but sometimes when im around 2000rpm in any gear the car just loses all power, I can put my foot flat to the floor and nothing will happen and then all of a sudden it will jump to 3000rpm then no higher, sometimes after this happens I wait a few seconds then its fine other times it will then stall, when I try to restart the car it is very hard to start and needs me to rev it as its cranking over, sometimes once its restarted it will work fine again and sometimes the whole process will repeat itself, it can happen any time even while cruising along in say 4th the revs will just get stuck around 3k.

Ive also noticed since this problem started the car is idling quite low sometimes around 400rpm.

Any suggestions what it could be as its doing my head in,

thanks guys.

MAF sensor.

Check for codes on the ecu.

It might need to be re-soldered.

my mates car is doing exactly the same thing, might check out this maf sensor you speak of .. is it connected to the afm? sorry for being a dumbass lol

How much boost u running?? Could be boost cut, probs the AFM is on its way out. Are you running stock ecu?? Also check the cars TPS.

Hey Guys,

Dave & I cleaned the AFM on his car last night. So far it seems a bit better but time will tell as it hasn't been taken for a good drive yet. Will let you know how that goes. If you have any further suggestions or comments let us know!

FYI; It's running 11psi.

Hey guys car drove fine all day today then tonight the problems all came back again so im stumped as to what the problem is.

Could still be the AFM if it's faulty. I'd get the sensors etc checked when getting PFC fitted, and chuck a Z32 AFM on while you're at it, then see how it goes
