Big Idle/ Stalling Issue
 
So like most of us I had and probably still have a sludge issue.. I fought it off a few years ago with Auto RX and other treatments but the dreaded Red Light kept coming back.

Mind you I change my oil with full Mobile 1 synthetic religously with NGK copper spark plugs (im GIAC chipped)

My car is now at 106000 Mi Its a tip 1.8T.

2 Days ago I had a independant mechanic drop the oil pan and replace the pump as well as clean out the pan. I was aweful in there .. black and sludge deposits everywhere and my pump screen was completely clogged.

Now I have a new issue. Never ends!

I was driving today and my car just kept feeling like it didnt have much power. Then when I came to 1st gear and low idle it just stalled. I cranked it back up and it had a really rough time getting going. I was able to drive it to my house but it felt like it was on maybe two cylinders at best. I noticed my gas went down while driving home way too much. Also when I opened the hood and opened the crankcase there was some white smoke coming out. Also had some smoke out of my exhaust pipes (white also) Now I can barely get it running.

So Im thinking its some kind of fuel delivery realated issue. I have a relatively knew fuel filter with only maybe 8K miles on it.

I havent been able to pull the codes yet but I will tomorrow.

Any help will be more than appreciated!!

Went to the car today (parked on my fiance's parents street where it died) to check the codes.. it cranked right up!? definitely idling a little weird though.

There was a few codes one for sure that is related but hey any help one the others great!

They are

P0411 Secondary Air Injection System Incorrect Flow Detected

18014 Rough Road Engine Torque ABS Electrical Malfunction

65535 Internal Control Module Memory Error

17931 Crash Signal Air Bag Implausible

P1857 Load Signal Error Message From ECU Intermittent

Yes I have a lot of lights on my dash...

I had my ABS module rebuilt and its working fine but my lights are still on for some reason plus I always pull that Rough Road Bullshit code.. Never have known why

I also ran some measuring blocks and the MAF was reading fine so were the O2 sensors.

Soley4pres Jun 11, 2011 11:32 PM

Also not sure why the airbag light is on

Soley4pres Jun 12, 2011 12:50 PM

anyone!?

Audisaurus Jun 12, 2011 01:14 PM

have you cleared the stored codes and re-scaned?
if a problem is fixed it wouldn't keep throwing a code such as the abs you said you fixed but still get the code.

Audisaurus Jun 12, 2011 01:15 PM

and there is probabaly a wiring problem with your airbag

the abs was repaired by a fellow member.. I even sent it back to him and he installed it on his car and it was fine... its sort of a mystery. I can communicate with the controller and it doesnt throw a code but my engine does that Rough Road ABS Electrical Malfunction.. That maybe an ECU issue I dont know.. But the ABS are working properly

Ill check on the airbag thanks

The car is still running the same.. Barely at all and rough idle with little to know acceleration

no ideas on the Sec. Air Injection System code?
