Point is, he's having issues with bm3, my brother had same issues with bm3....


We both had JB4 no issues, just stating the facts.

[cesarortiz23]

so here is the update:


so finally my mechanic was able to get to my car today at the dealer he diagnose the whole car he reprogrammed the entire car and calibrated the injectors and the car went back to normal

back to normal idle and normal driving no back fires no misfires on nothing no codes nothing.


so he found it very weird what was going on ,
he has no clue what was the issue to this or why it even start to do that

so im happy it wasn't something deep or something really bad with engine failure or something like that.

so now im kinda sketched out idk if i should really sell my bm3 or give it another shot.
should i give bm3 another shot or do you guys think it will fuck my car up again lol?

does anyone kinda know what happen to my car lol

he is telling me i need walnut shell blasting for sure tho.

so while my car is there i am going to do walnut shell blast
oil change and alignment.

Glad to hear they were able to fix it without much issue. I guess I can't really tell you if you should or should not re-flash. Caveat emptor, I guess.

Yeah idk if I should try to flash it to atleast mppk flash

Or just leave it alone and maybe try another tune or idk

I'm just sketched out to flash it and it messes up my programming of the car again or idk exactly but then I have to call my mechanic AGAIN and say the same issue returned once I flashed it

He will be like come on man lol

So all he did was reflash stock software? What do you mean by "recalibrate injectors?" that sounds like bs

Someone did mention you need to code the injectors when you put new in

Yeaaaah I'm not seeing that. If he just cleared codes and reset adaptations ok, but not sure about re-calibrating the injectors. Did you replace them?

Ah gotcha, I missed that somehow. But doesn't explain why it was misfiring before swapping injectors even if it was necessary.

Yeah idk dude

I was so confused my self I honestly thought it was something else

I couldn't figure it out I was so weird

The car was running great I put bm3 and that's it the car panicked it was over boosting like crazy
Timing was way way way toooo off
Then that started to happen put the car back to stock and didn't make a difference

And I changed out spark plugs
Changed out a coil pack didn't make a difference
Changed out 2 injectors didn't fix the problem

Intill my friend at the dealer did that

[cesarortiz23]

hello you guys so i got my car back today the car feels great running smooth like butter so i decided to give bm3 one last chance and see how my car reacted to it before i just went ahead and sold it

im not going to lie i was kinda scared so i wasn't able to get full wot pulls because obviously the trust is not there yet.


here are some logs if i can please get some feed back on how these logs look if my car looks healthy etc.

with afr boost timing etc.

here are some logs

please someone take look at these and tell me how they look

i know they are not the best pulls but i was honestly afraid lol

Major timing issues and also your afr is spiking to like 19 in two of the logs. I think your car has some issues based on that weirdness with the afr. The timing could be simply poor octane gas that you are using.
Is this a 91 or 93oct ots map? If possible get the best octane gas available and try out the acn91 map.

Sorry I looked closer at that one log with the weird afr and it looks like it only spikes lean on gear shift maybe that is perfectly normal with 8AT and is not a worry.

The timing only looks really bad (as in all negative values - timing be pulled) under wot in the lower rpm range where it makes peak torque. It's not totally out of the ordinary but it certainly isn't good. Might want to consider trying a different gas station and see if that helps.

Sorry if I got you really worried for no reason with the afr issue lol my bad dude

The overboost issue is something that PTF can resolve for you though. They might even be able to help out the timing as well, have faith and patience.
