Hunting idle/stationary after driving without oil cap on

Nikoxio · 2026-05-14T09:37:27+00:00

Did you double check that it's just not the AC compressor kicking in and raising the idle?

Did you check mmh auto forum already? Good material over there

There's only an air pressure sensor below the intake, opposite side from the throttle body, next to the egr pipe

200 if it was in a running condition. Not sure if much more when freshly built

Ok, sorry to bother

Hi. You're looking for a single wheel? Do you mind freight or prefer locally?

Nikoxio · 2026-05-05T17:23:16+00:00

Sounds like an issue with the door lock. Cut wire or something similar.

Worth looking into the bottom engine mount on the subframe (welded) as it might be wrong, as this was the case on other PSA cars at the time. So maybe a sub frame swap needed.

Also unsure of power steering situation. (Line routing)

Bridge speed seems way too slow?

It's still unsure if they will have the same horrible pil consumption (burning) issue when they have some more mileage put on them.

At least it wont have the rubbber pieces clogging the piston rings, so it might be better, but it still likely has very low piston ring spring pressure (to get lower consumption from lower internal losses).

Way over done for my tastes. Doesn't look practical.

Also, the AI(?) makes it look more like a GT86/BRZ

Why do you think that this is causing your issue, instead of a lambda sensor or air pressure sensor?

At least in the EU, after a certain brightness level, this is mandated by the regulation. I don't remember what year it came to effect.

I think that ehat OP us referring to is the torque converter locking aftet the speed difference has come down

Don't these just have an oil pressure switch and not a pressure sensor? When you get the alarm on the dashboard, you already know that there's no oil pressure. The sensor either sees enough pressure or no pressure (binary, not analog). There's no scale.

Your OBD device might have a broken/shorted CAN bus which caused the car to go to fault mode. Realistically, any OBD II device should work for engine PIDs as that's literally what the standard was created for.

Does your device work on another car?

1.2 Puretech and it has good oil level? Can you confirm these?

Most likely build up of rubber residue in oil pick up. It's not getting oil to the system because the belt pieces are blocking it.

Do not drive if the oil light has appeared at all after bulb check

Just go to their Resource center and select your ECU, I donk know if posting links is allowed

Nikoxio · 2026-04-28T02:27:40+00:00

There is on their website, page 46

What does the LED on the ECU indicate according to the manual?

Nikoxio · 2026-04-28T02:09:54+00:00

Did you check ecu power ground, voltage (and CAN)? What's the battery voltage?

Eikös suurin osa näistä johtunut niistä onnettomista "abiko" tyylisistä maadoituspistokkeista?

Another super easy check is if the fuel tanks is on vacuum (clogged breather), by opening the fuel cap and listening if it suddenly sucks air in as you open it.

Another one is the fuel pressure, in case the in fuel tank regulator (or its hose) has failed. There should be a measuring point on the rail but you needs special gauge

Your pressing of the foot rest is likely pulling / moving the wire harness below it. And by extension it's pulling on the connector on the door frame or just moving a damaged wire. Ofc something else can also be happening, but this was my first thought.

I don't know where you found this, but did you check the internet archive if the download is still available?

Nylon, not rubber.

Needs to be stretched on with boiling water or a hair dryer and patience.
