Re: Thomas D' Great's X90 mark 2

Re: 1jzgte vvti failed emissions test (compliance)

when my car idles at 500rpm, its because the ecu has jumped into safe mode, or limp mode, and is running full rich all the time to protect the engine. can be smokey (black smoke), very sluggish, slow to spool on turbo, etc etc. this is not indicated by engine check light on the dash for some reason ...
