Recommended Posts

Hi from Australia,

I really hope someone can help me with this, The car has been to 6 different mechanics including Subaru Australia and no one seems to be able to resolve the issue.

The issue started shortly after 75000 kms and the car now has 82000. It's a 2004 AUDM Subaru Liberty GT MY05 2.0L Turbo Manual.

when the revs are kept at The issue is car shudders/stumbles at idle especially when warmed up and around 1500rpm the whole car shakes. Normal/on boost driving seems fine, the car pulls like a train.

I am very frustrated with it and at a point I want to actually get rid of it.

Xforce Catback

with Standard mufflers

That is correct its happening when in neutral and idling as well as when revs are kept at around 1500rpm.

 

What would cause A/F to behave high like that?

 

It is a custom tune/reflash done in Sydney using open source tools.

 

I reattached the logs here hope it helps , let me know if you guys need me to log anything else .

well, the computer is adding a bunch of fuel, so its seeing a very lean combustion. so either your under measuring air (vac leak or sensor problem), or you have some sort of fuel delivery problem.

 

Check the turbo inlet for holes as a possible source of vac leak, you're at the age where they tend to fail. Other possibilities might be the fuel pump, or the o-rings in the fuel pump assembly.
