Hey Guys,

my pop up screen is faulty, when you press the button the screen will come all the way up then go straight down, however if i hold the screen inplace it will eventually stay open and display however after a while the screen times out the display shuts off is this a common problem or is this just me?

Also is there any progress with getting the software translated?

Thanks,

Vince

I'm thinking with the way he is talking about the popup screen, his car will be a series 2. In which case, no there is no news on the translation yet.

Screen seems a little tricky. There is a function to shut it down somewhere in the menus, but sometimes it just 1/2 way up and decides it wants to go back down. I've only had the issue once in a couple of years ownership, and it sorted itself out.

lol pull apart, man are you crazy lol jks nah im not confident with touching anything in my car, worth getting an auto elec to have a look at it do you think?

Mine did this. It is most likely not a setting (I got each page translated via email) and you don't need to take anything apart.

All you have to do is push your screen down a little bit (say 1-2cm) when it is first going up.

Don't grab it, just push it down quickly and it should stay up and display whatever you want it to display.

It can also have a screen saver function so check if it does this

Unfortunately my screen doesnt stay up unless i hold it up for a sec, then it wont go down untill i restart the car, i tried doing what you said but it wont stay up just goes down, before if i held it up it would eventually power on however it isnt doing this anymore anyone have any more input?

Try pushing it down a bit more when it is first popping up. It will not stay up if you didn't push it down far enough or quick enough.

Don't wait for it to hit the top before pushing it down though and don't hold it up.

Doing this trick resets the winding mechanism's "top" which is where it locks and turns itself on.

I have an extra unit here which is doing the same thing and was going to take it apart and try to implement a manual switch of some sort, but found the easier way ;)

Oh i got it now, thanks, lol now im trying to pair my hpne to the car however i am not getting the aknowledge ment that i am in pairing mode, have any experience doing this, mabe i need the japanese word for setup, pair etc. If any one has experience doing so let me know.

    • Hi guys, has anyone either purchased or built themselves a rotisserie for their car before? I can only just justify the need for one hence why I should just make one but at the same time, if I make one I can kiss another 4 weeks of potentially productive car working time goodbye because I'm building a bloody rotisserie....  I mainly want it for the application of the body deadener.  Cleaning the old stuff off, priming and then colour over the deadener doesn't worry me, it's just the application using the Schutz Gun that I feel would achieve a significantly better finish painting it side on and keeping the Schutz Gun upright.  I don't think they would work well on the side let alone almost upside down for some areas.  If the product I use (Terosun, etc) could work through a HVLP ok then it might be ok to apply without the rotisserie.   I can get one of these style ones for about $1200 which is pretty good value-     I reckon if I made one it would cost around $500 but it's more the time that it would take is more of a killer than the cost.  They look to hold their value pretty well second hand so I could always sell it after using it and realistically only lose $200-$300 at worst.  Or keep it and buy another project when this one finally sees the light of day... Anyone selling one...? Cheers!  
    • While it is a very nice idea to put card style AFMs into the charge pipe (post intercooler, obviously), the position of the AFM and the recirc valve relative to each other starts to become something that you really have to consider. The situation: The stock AFM is located upstream the turbo, and the recirc valve return is located between the AFM and the turbo inlet, aimed at the turbo inlet, so that it flows away from and not through the AFM. Thus, once metered air is not metered again, neither flowing forwards, or backwards, when vented out of the charge pipe. When you put the AFM between the turbo outlet and the TB, there is a volume of pressurised charge pipe upstream of the AFM and there is a volume of pressurised pipe downstream of the AFM. When the recirc valve opens and vents the charge pipe, air is going to flow from both ends of the charge pipe towards the recirc valve. If the recirc valve is in the stock location, then the section between it and the TB doesn't really matter here - you're not going to try to put the AFM in that piece of pipe. But the AFM will likely be somewhere between the intercooler and the recirc valve, So the entire charge pipe volume from that position (upstream of the AFM, back through the intercooler, to the turbo outlet) is going to flow through the AFM, get registered as combustion air, cause the ECU to fuel for it, but get dumped out of the recirc valve and you will end up with a typical BOV related rich spike. So ideally you want to put the AFM as close to the TB as possible (so, just upstream of the crossover pipe, assuming that the stock crossover is still in use, or, just before the TB if an FFP is being used) and locate the recirc valve at the turbo outlet. Recirc valve at the turbo outlet is the new normal for things like EFRs anyway. In the even of a recirc valve opening dumping all the air in the charge pipe, pretty much all of it is going to go backwards, from the TB to the recirc valve near the turbo outlet. But only a small portion of it (that between the TB and the AFM) will pass through the AFM, and it will pass through going backwards. The card style AFMs are somewhat more immune to reading flow that passes through them in reverse than older AFMs are, so you should absolutely minimise the rich pulse behaviour associated with the unavoidable outcome of having both a recirc valve and an AFM in the charge pipe.
    • Yep, in my case as soon as I started hearing weird noises I backed off the tension until it sounded normal again. Delicate balance between enough tension to avoid that cold start slip and too much damaging things.
    • I'm almost at a point where I feel like changing the alternator. Need to check the stuff you mentioned first though.
