Logging torque
Posted: Thu Sep 09, 2010 11:05 pm
Playing with VCDS today, curious about the torque readings.
Logging group 120: field 1 [engine torque - specified] shows a steady figure of 799.7Nm (this is a C5 RS6 with MRC 1+ map) except when traction control engages.
However, with traction off and very spirited driving (including a couple of 'no good for the box' starts), group 120: field 2 [engine torque - actual] never rises above 607.6Nm. Boost and other readings are what I'd expect
How come I can't get it to plant the full 800Nm?
