This is what I recorded yesterday using ECUtalk. I edited the video down to 4:15, just from the time I got on the interstate and exited again. Apologies for all the clicking picked up by the microphone, the only thing I can think is it was rubbing on the leather seat? [ http://youtu.be/qftiJV_fYsc ] I think everything looks normal. Car did not go into safety boost, which is what I was hoping I would get so I could record what the engine was doing when it occurs. My theory of a faulty MAF seems to be disproved by this recording, at 6,000 rpm with 3.26 volts on the throttle (and about 10.5 psi boost) the MAF was at 4.16 v (this is at approx. 110 mph, in 3rd gear- automatic transmission). However, the MAF was showing a bad reading with the ignition ON (engine not running) of 0.44 with a voltmeter, ECUTalk recorded 0.08 volts. Service manual says it should be 0.8 volts. ECUTalk could not read the speed, I believe the consult adapter I got on Ebay is faulty. It also causes a code 14 Speed sensor fault, and sets off the HICAS warning light, and to make things just peachy it puts the power steering into "high speed mode"- fine for the freeway, not so great on city streets. Removing the consult adapter from the vehicle's plug restores everything to normal. So I am asking the seller for a replacement adapter, assuming this one has some kind of internal short. Also did a power balance test when I got home using OBD Scantech. Got an rpm drop on every cylinder, so presuming I have no misfires (at idle anyway). Is it worth re-running the balance test at higher rpm (I saw that as an option)?
