Re: Build thread
I've had some issues with the display that we're still working through, but I keep hitting huge potholes. A couple of them have been fixed, I think, but then other issues will pop up, or current problems will change a bit. I had replaced the Arduino board in the hub and it fixed an issue with some w...

Re: Build thread
I wasn't making any progress on getting the OS image written for the Pi, so I sent it to OneGauge so Mike could get it running, that way once I get it back from him I can install everything and be done with this project. I've been working on a few things in the mean time. He should be sending it bac...

Re: Build thread
I got the dash a few weeks ago and have been modifying it a bit so it fits a little better, but it did fit pretty well right out of the box. I've heated up and reshaped part of it, and sanded here and there, ground off a bit so it doesn't stick out as far. It's about as good as I can get it, and I'v...

Re: Build thread
I uploaded the files into Craftcloud last night and ordered them from Loop 3D Additive Manufacturing in the UK, printed with SLS PA12 Nylon so it's stronger and heat resistant. I should be getting it the 2nd week of July, so turnaround isn't too bad. And I ordered some heatserts from McMaster Carr l...

Re: Build thread
The file is finished and emailed to me. He included a test print to make sure the center surround will be the right size for the display, so I'm trying to get that printed now so I can move on with this project and hopefully finish before winter lol. I got into ChatGPT and had it write some code to ...

Re: Build thread
Pretty excited about this update. The file is just about finished. It's been a bit confusing because there are some optical illusions between the headlight and cruise buttons and the holes for the warning lights. And my scan wasn't great so he had to recreate the Audi portion from scratch, and then ...

Re: Build thread
I haven't done anything else to try to fix my current issue lol. I'm going to upload an old map and see if that works. In the mean time, I picked up an RX-8 4.44 diff from Jeff, so I'm now looking for an extra FD diff or case that I can swap it into. If it's lower mileage than my current diff or in ...

Re: Build thread
I swapped the fuel filter and pump and it made no difference. I talked to Chris Ludwig and he told me that they had issues like this a few times and asked if I had another ECU to swap in to test. He said to recreate a map from scratch because the current one could be corrupted, and he said that has ...

Re: Build thread
I checked the fuel filter gauge while idling and it still looked good, but I swapped it anyway. i bought a new fuel pump to swap in as well that I should get by the end of the week, and I changed the oil. When I was under the car I also noticed part of the diffuser missing, one of the vertical sides...

Re: Build thread
I replaced the wideband sensor this week and got some more logs. I didn't see anything dropping out, but I did notice in the logs that it looked like fuel pressure was dropping while TPS was held at 99%, and then the ECU was going into protection mode to save the engine. Joe said that he was seeing ...

Re: Build thread
I took the car up to Joe at Josh's shop yesterday. He said after his first drive that it was happening in every gear, not just 2nd. We tried several different things with no luck. We verified wiring again, and voltage and ground. We swapped his HE sensor from his car to mine, and at first it looked ...

Re: Build thread
I got the new knock sensors the next day and installed one of them after verifying that it doesn't ground to the block. I started reconnecting all the connectors, installing the UIM and all that. But before I finished, I verified again that the grounding issue was gone. Nope, it was still there lol....

Re: Build thread
I traced the cause of the grounding issue to the knock sensor, I just kept checking for continuity as I unplugged connectors until I found it. It grounds to the block (through one of the terminals), which is grounded to the chassis, then the battery. To the knock sensor I have a signal wire and the ...

Re: Build thread
I recently discovered a problem while boosting hard, the car just falls on its face. I sent a log to Joe and he said the wideband and crank trigger are dropping out under load. While checking grounds, I discovered that the sensor grounds and battery grounds had continuity together. I finally tracked...

Re: Build thread
I finally used my scanner and got one decent scan of the Audi cluster. I tried several more times after that to get a better scan and they were all shit. I tried so many different things with no luck. I have no idea what I did the first time to get a fairly good scan, but I couldn't repeat it. I'm g...
