Help Idle issue with civic EG Eu version
Hello all!
I'm from spain and I have bought a civic EG B16; to make this horror history short:
- Some months ago my ecu p30 stock got burned a C14 capacitor got toasted; i wasn't able to find any EDM p30 and a friend advised me to get a chipped p28
- bought one a chipped P28 but had a new issue, my idle was surging when car was cold and moving, in Neutral or with clutch pressed the iddle will fluctuate
- After sometime i could get my old P30 fixed and it got replaced the c14 capacitor; was happy until someday my car suddendly died right after being started in my work and i had a very bad smell coming from ecu; smelled like a burned cable
- got my car towed to home and got swapped the p30 ecu for the p28, but i was having the same idle issues
- bought a different chip from a local dealer asking for a chip with a 100% stock p30 map got it replaced... and again the same issue, idle fluctuates
so, now apparently the p30 it's not fixable anymore and I can't find any P30 on the market and the p28 with 3 different chips can't idle right
so, where can i have the issue???
idle only fluctuates when car is cold and rolling at low speed
I love the car but i'm getting tired of it
thanks for your help!
