What have you done to your MSP today?

[2.0t03speed]

I had a interesting drive into work today... but lets recap a little. last night I backed into my driveway and went to shut off my lights. The lights shut off and came back on. I checked my relay and it was wet a little. Pulled it our for the night for it to dry out. Installed it this morning and everythign functions like normal! Now im up and running without issue or so I think. I got about 1/4th of the my headlights shut off at about 6:10 in the morning. I couldnt get the lights to come back on to save my butt. The only thing I had was my running lights. lol Thankfully I made it to work safe, on time (going a lot slower then normal), and no tickets! lol

you should of just drove with your parking lights on and you holding the high beams on IIRC when you pull the stalk towards you it bypasses the relay

I drove with the parking lights on and had no brights to drive with, no lights what so ever other then the parking lights... the controller/relay or whatever its called is shot.

Cleaned my interior today with Turtle Wax Ice Interior All-In-One. This stuff is great! I definitely recommend it.

 

[Preferio]

Looked at it sitting in my shop... Radiator should be here Tuesday, lip will be ready for pick up Wednesday, and maybe the transmission will arrive too... and if so, I'm just going to get in it and drive through the mountains next weekend.

Anybody know what an IMCC actuator is?

 

[Spiced MSP]

I think it's one of the actuators on the side of the intake manifold for either the VTCS or VICS.

Hmmm. So CEL came on again after having it cleared and 2 codes were thrown. First one being "heated o2 sensor circuit no activity", and the other "IMCC actuator circuit malfunction.

 

[Spiced MSP]

just throwing this out there, I don't know too much about the actuator thing, but make sure the green and white connectors on top of the manifold are plugged in all the way and the vac lines on the actuators are secure

Ah, I'll go ahead and check that out then let you know. Thanks dude!

Noob question! If I were to have my car tuned by a performance shop, would that basically replace the idea of getting a AFC and such?

 

[Spiced MSP]

can't tune the stock ecu, you will need the afc to tune it

 

[bwlknsn91]

Yup, that's what I figured. So if I bought an AFC I could have it custom tuned I suppose?

 

[Spiced MSP]

yup, that's what it's for

 

[bwlknsn91]

yup, that's what it's for

Right on! What's the difference between the SSAFC and the Unichip?

 

[kamon8404]

Unichip is plug and play. AFC requires you to splice into your wiring harness. Unichip can adjust timing an AFC can not. AFC has software anyone can use, unichip needs to be tuned at a unichip dealer.
