GaryM Posted September 24, 2004 Report Posted September 24, 2004 Investigating the rough running of my engine I ended up cleaning the EGR as suggested elsewhere in this forum. It was very gummed up and I saw that the valve can be recalibrated using VAG-COM. Both procedures are very well documented here. However I have a question about the calibration I can only seem to enter 33638 as the maximum adaptation value not the 33768 suggested. Is this just a Ford specific limitation or am I doing some thing wrong? Quote
johnb80 Posted September 25, 2004 Report Posted September 25, 2004 From an I.T. point of view I would have guessed that the number should have been 32,768 (because of binary etc etc). Regards - JB Quote
iainkirk Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 Off-topic, but surely 32768 is related to hexadecimal (Base 16) or octal (Base 8)and not binary! :P Quote
Sher Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 :P Oh yes it is!! F = 17 = 1111 = 15 Hexadecimal Octal Binary Denary They are all interconnected. Add 1 to each and you get 10 = 20 = 10000 = 16 :D Have Fun :D P.S Hope I got it right!! Quote
Sher Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 I spent time formatting that last post and its gone now!! i.e. the numbers and words etc don't line up. :P Quote
