Guest Scootre Guests Posted 26/03/04 09:42 PM Share Posted 26/03/04 09:42 PM (edited) The guys that have had a stall since the reflash... what ambient temps did you have at the time?Mine's not stalled since the reflash but as I said before, it only did it on very warm days so with Syd temps in the mid 20's it might not do it until later in the year.

Pulled up at the traffic lights, it hunted for idle, then stopped. Ambient less that 20, A/C off. Not happy, as its been ages since mine has actually stalled, it usually just drops the revs too low before returning to idle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changing gears quietly seemed to be a lot easier, without the clunk from the diff.I put this down to the fact that it seemed to hold the revs a little longer before falling, so that the revs were still slighty higher as you released the clutch. If that makes sense Anyway, made it much nicer to drive home this arvo. Went the long way Anyone else with a manual noticed any change?Didnt have any stalling problems (touch wood!) but did have a horrible thump on coming to a halt and a rough gear change in my auto. Had the new Cals flashed a few weeks ago and my T is much better - I no longer wait for the thump on deceleration and upchanges are much smoother (was told it can take about 500km to be very effective by the dealer) and dont think its been de-tuned!

I'm pretty sure that you won't have the B30 WS as it's only 10 days old or so.Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying this very cautiously, with fingers & toes crossed - whilst still not perfect it now feels more like the new car, which I should have had exactly a year ago!
