ok, this is exceptionally weird

the past 2 weeks or so whenever i have turned the car on, the turbo has spun fine.

although today i modified the oil intake as it was leaking the old way.

and when the car starts, the turbo spins and then just gradually slows down and comes to a COMPLETE STOP

and on idle, it just sits there, no spinning.

give it some juice, and it spins fine, but let it fall back to idle and it slows to a stop.

this kinda freaked me out, because i am just about ready to get the exhaust made and thats all that left to do.

and now this.

so please boost help me.

ok, no there is no evidence of scratches on the walls, so the blades are not hitting the side. and i cant move the shaft so there is no shaft play, although i can easly spin the turbing, and both the intake wheel and exhaust wheel have no obvious problems, everything looks 100% perfect. but it just doesnt spin at low revs.

its weird

its a new T04e turbo

HELP

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
