Already returned the car to the owner so doing catch up updating this blog.
Will backdate it to 07/Dec as that was when I finished the service.






After trying to improve the leaky solenoid issue many times, carried out one more process and stopped there as it was no longer cost effective investing into this ancient ABS.

Even with this 2nd generation with improved solenoid package, the solenoids are not free from the leaky or stuck closed issue.

Advised the owner to exercise the ABS only one or two times from about 10mph while the tyre is cold.

Also, warned not exercise frequently in one go in order to prevent the ABS pump operate too frequently during the process resulting in massive air in the accumulator.

















Base idle air adjusted.

It's DBW so without the EACV.

The ECU will force the rpm to the targeted rpm.

Not sure it's related to the suspicious grey dust on the Front bank spark plugs but the idle air screw sat not quite close enough where it should.

Would love to see the valve clearance and even the cam timing alignment in the near future.

For now, not going to lock the screw just yet.















Not exactly the same as the cornering force but as standard procedure, placed one side of the car on the stand and another clearance check of the damper at both the front and rear.

The owner is aware of the clearance check importance if anything changed in the future.















After months on the lift, finally the car was back on the road and went out for the final test driving session before the last lockdown came into force.

Back on the lift for final inspection.

Warned the owner about the completely different brake pedal feeling and the performance, different suspension feedback and alignment not done yet, etc.















For now, adjusted the ABS fluid level here.
