Guys,

Im not sure what's going on here. I keep getting torque sent to the front even at the slightest throttle kick.

My car had been running sweet up until a 2-3 months ago with it getting worse and worse. At first it'll keep sending front torque, until you take your foot off the accelerator and then it will correct itself.

Cruising at 80 kph it is sitting at about 10 or so. Hard throttlle itll go to 40. Mind you this is constant.

What could be causing these issues? The car has become really shit to drive. I do have a sliiping clutch ATM could this have anything to do with this problem? For example if i am hardshifting 2nd to 3rd it will slip and cause the front torque to fly up to 35 - 40 ish.

Thanks for your help guys.

Check tyre pressures and make sure they're even front and back. If that is fine, then put the front wheels on the back and vice versa.

Happens due to tyre tread wear, front and rear never wear evenly so over time a slight rolling diameter difference becomes bigger which makes ATTESA think the rears are slipping

Tyres are all 95% and in pretty good condition

Ok i got some good news, left rear tyre was flat 5psi.

New Tyres were installed two days ago, so I don't know what the f**k went wrong. I'll be going back that's for sure.

A lesson to all, the attesa system is very sensitive to tyre pressures!!!

    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.

    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
