Guest Posted April 6, 2022 Posted April 6, 2022 I've used the same iCarsoft unit I use for my Honda Legend; just download the Toyota file from iCarsofts site, and install; the unit is called: iCarsoft JP v2.0
Alphie Posted August 15 Posted August 15 Just wondering if anyone can add anything needed to bring this thread up to date. I'm trying to diagnose a fault which brings up my EML when I put the engine under a bit of extra load particularly in hot weather. It also lacks power & the drive seems to stutter under high load. I have changed the bank 1 lambda, no change. I suspect the MAF sensor but following advice on a YouTube video, I want to make some live readings before i attempt to clean or replace it (location on the hybrid is a bit of a nightmare). In particular the video suggests reading the 'calculated load' figure, which as a percentage at full throttle, can be in the 90's. This is supposed to be the best indicator of a faulty or fouled MAF sensor, which would return a lower value eg 70%'s. So my question is, does the Icarsoft scanner display the live data for calculated load or can anyone recommend a scanner that will. Thanks
Chris.ac Posted August 16 Posted August 16 What fuel are you using? Are you using premium (97 ron+)? You don't need premium in the 2.4l, its used for the v6 engines that have higher compression, in order to perfect pre-ignition. Maybe you have lower compression than normal which is causing the fuel to ignite far too late and causing such poor power generation.
