I have a 2006 Kia Optima in my stall right now. VIN KNAGD126765464907, 2.4l DOHC California Emissions with a manual transmission. The vehicle surges radically at idle. Another tech had it in his stall and he came up with a TPS code, and subsequently replaced the TPS. He has since put on a MAF and IAC motor, all from Worldpack to no avail. So now it sits in my stall.
It surges, sometimes with consistency and other times just oddly, from 1800 RPM to 500RPM. It currently has no codes aside from those I am setting. In looking at data I see it goes to open loop when idling high to closed loop when low. In closed loop it goes dead rich, 1 volt at the O2, 10MS duration on the injectors, and the MAF read ~2V. In open loop the O2 cycles a tad rich, but it moves well, 2MS on time, and the MAF reads 1.2. All data has been verified via the scope. In closed loop my trims go to -20$, in open, as expected 0. I am not surprised at this as my previous info indicates it should read this way. Vacuum when it surges low is 21 in, and about 19 when idling high. Closing off my incoming air stalls the car, closing off the IAC passage drops my idle to ~500RPM. I have checked and no vacuum leaks are found. EGR has been blocked off, canister purge has been blocked off, and still no good. I have checked all grounds (both through voltage drop- no more than .02V on any sensor, and by creating my own grounds), and those stupid ground splices that Kia likes to use. I do not lose any voltages (checked all sensor references and all 12 volt lines). Fuel pressure is a steady 48PSI, volume is good, and fuel quality is good.
All my inputs seem to be correct.
If you disconnect the IAC it still surges the same. If you disconnect the MAF it goes full rich and idles at ~500RPM, and my surge goes away. I physically checked my cam timing, and all keyways for slippage, because I did not like my cam/crank data...
Yellow-cam, green-crank, Blue-ignition
The majority of the patterns I viewed on Kias show my leading edge of the crank to closely correspond to the cam, where mine does not.
Anybody have any input? I am tempted to put a brain in it, but I have so little experiance with Hyundai/Kia, and I just don't know about them having ECM issues.
