Hi all!
I am desperate for some ideas and help
2013 LFX 3.6 185xxx always used 98 octane and serviced always.
Iv started to experience a strange issue that arises when im idling for some time with the engine already at operating temp.
The LTFT on both banks just sits at -35% and dumps fuel into the car, the ECU is trying to reduce as i can see -30ish% on the STFT to try and fix it, but the car just runs rough and theres a bit of after run for 2-3 seconds when i shut the car off.
Upon starting it again, it struggles as there's so much fuel still left in the fuel rails but eventually gets going.
I must mention, on a cold start the next morning the car runs like a dream and the AFR seems pretty normal, around + - 5% on both banks.
at first i thought it was injectors as there was fuel in the oil and thinking it was leaking injectors, big money spent for no fix.
No check engine lights. Fuel pressure is showing 61psi when the issue is happening which seems quite high, usually sits around 43-45 and high pressure fuel reacts as normal.
o2 sensors seem to be operating normal upstream and downstream.
Not sure what to do,
Never seen this issue before with any VE's
Thanks!
