  2. I have a PCV /Autotune for 4000 Km now, on a European '06 model, having some issues below 5K rpms, 2% to 40% throttle and in 1st, 2nd and 3rdgear. I have blocked PAIR valve, checked injectors and using a vacuum switch toturn O2 sensor off during deceleration. When I accept trims for several times, in a number of cells the fuel adjusts from -20 to +20 or more every250 rpm up until 5+k. I bought autotune having in mind to make the motor smooth. I realize now that this is not possible. In case that the base map in second gear has AF ratio about 13.3 then +20% is 10.7 and -20% is 16 way outof 12.6 to 15 acceptable range. I think that this happens by two factors: 1. Fuel cut in deceleration makes cells richer. A vacuum switch helps but just before throttle is completely closed, not when deceleration starts. 2. During acceleration ECU richens mixture for some cycles and at that point autotune makes cells lean. PCV/autotune shouldhave built-in functions of stopping data logging of O2 sensor automatically during acceleration and deceleration. As it is, PCV/Autotune is not a mature combination despite all that marketing. A solution I see is to accelerate with throttle in certain position and gear eg 20% / 2ndgear, from 1500 to 5000 rpms then press the clutch, stop, accept trims and zero the 20% column in of the AF table. Otherwise, to build something that cuts autotune off when injectors are not working (fuel-cut), aswell as during a certain positive Delta (acceleration) for a number of cycles. What really pisses me off is that such functions should already be present inPCV.
  3. 6K same temperature as the sunlight. I have used them, they are great and work better in fog. Unfortunately in Europe are not legal. It is better to buy the bulbs separately. The bulbs of a kit are usually of low quality. Can you recommend a good place to get bulbs? I just bought them from a local store. The original (Chineze) bulbs had bad geometry and after 350 hours of use lost 40% of the initial luminosity. About the cost; there are three categories cheap 15, good 35, best 55 euro each bulb, but these are prices in a local store more than a year ago. Which type am I after for my 6th Gen? 6th gen uses H7. Take into account that you will have to built or buy also two bases (adapters) for the HIDs to fit in the headlight. This is the original base And this is the base I built Furthermore, you have to buy two wedge LED lamps the same temperature (color) to match HIDs
  4. Can you tell me the type of the vacuum switch you used? Do you think that we could have the same result if instead of the vacuum switch to use the electrical circuit of the PAIR valve that is mainly activated while decelerating?

The original (Chineze) bulbs had bad geometry and after 350 hours of use lost 40% of the initial luminosity. In the following photo you can see the diversion of the axis of the cheap bulb. The respective diversion from the top to the bottom of the more expensive bulb is much less So even when the cheap bulbs are new the bad geometry causes bad focusing. Right focusing is when there is a definite separation between the dark and the bright areas The two bulbs side by side. The left one is dull About the cost; there are three categories cheap 15, good 35, best 55 euro each bulb, but these are prices in a local store more than a year ago.
  6. Not all of Europe. I have 6K and and here you can have a colour temperature up to 8K. If I have to replace the bulb it will be a lower temp bulb. Here in Greece, and in Italy, the first and most important reason is that you must have a system that automatically stabilizes the beam horizontally (usually from a sensor in back axle). The second that you must have headlight wipers and the third that the low and high beam should not operate in the same time. Furthermore, insurance companies could not pay damages when there is a modification like this (there is such a case in Italy).
