Self-adaptation of mixture formation at its limit - fault code description ME-SFI - AD07.61-P-4000-09AB

    Self adaptation of the mixture formation is at the limit value, in idle 
1A Fault code P2017 for the right cylinder bank (P0170)
  (USA ONLY Readout on generic scan tool) P2086 for the left cylinder bank (P0173)
1B Engines 112, 113 as of 1/01 P2017-[1] for the right cylinder bank, mixture correction too great (P0170)
  Fault code P2017-[2] for the right cylinder bank, mixture correction too small (P0170)
  (USA ONLY Readout on generic scan tool) P2086-[1] for the left cylinder bank, mixture correction too great (P0173)
P2086-[2] for the left cylinder bank, mixture correction too small (P0173)
2 Fault storage after expiry of test duration and fault
  Actuation of the indicator lamp  
 
  • Engine diagnosis (EURO3/4)
  • CHECK ENGINE (MIL) I
  • no actuation
  • following two successive driving cycles with faults
3 Checking frequency Continuous
4 Checked signal or status Limits for self adaptation of mixture formation
5 Fault setting conditions   
  Limit value, additive correction Approx. ± 1.0 ms (equivalent to approx. 40% of the injection time in idle)
  Limit value, multiplicative correction Factor 0.7 up to 1.3
  Mixture too rich. The injection time must be reduced by more than 30% (in idle by more than 1 ms) (lean stop).
The injection time must be extended by more than 30% (in idle by more than 1 ms) (rich stop).
  Mixture too lean. At least 400 seconds.
  Checking duration  
6 Check prerequisites
  • lambda control enabled
  • function of self adaptation of mixture formation enabled
  • coolant temperature greater than 70°C
  • no engine oil dilution due to fuel
  • no fault on coolant temperature sensor, hot film MAF sensor, O2 sensors, air injection and leak-tightness of the purge system USA ONLY .
7 IMPORTANT In order to determine a new value for the mixture formation self adaptation, it is necessary to undertake a journey of approx. 20 minutes with enabled lambda control.
