No Injector Values for 8 Injectors, Can this be the cause of my Rich mixture code?

Hi Guys, I recently bought a 2016 f85 at auction, I’ve been carrying out repairs myself and I am enjoying working on this engine. I’ve been having a rich mixture across banks, and been trying to diagnose. I’ve changed air intake pipes, and MAFS, Smoke tested the Intake, New plugs and coils, still have the codes 118111 and 118011. Today with ISTA I found that there are no values added for all 8 injectors. could this be the cause of my issues? do I have to pull the injectors to get the code value or are there generic values I can type in to test the theory. I would appreciate advice from those more experienced.

If you have EU6 injectors you don't need to set values, they are all the same for them. You should be able to sight the P/N and set value on the injectors without removing them.

Nothing stops you from showing EU5 into EU6 slots tho, and that is a No Bueno.

I appreciate the reply, Got my bore scope and had a look, all 215, For pig iron I coded them and deleted the engine faults, ran the car up to temp and Bang….codes came back. I changed out the HPFP’s today and fingers crossed that seems to have done the trick. I would have thought that they would throw up more more codes other then 118111 and 118011?

That’s interesting…any idea why EU6 injectors all have the same compensation value?

I don’t know for certain but I would guess they standardized the deviation and the ECU can learn the adaptations to compensate for the cylinders.

I'm not certain if this is causing your rich mixture issues, unless the injector was somehow injecting too much fuel. My F85 is at the shop right now getting a injector replaced, due to a Powertrain malfunction issue. And these injectors aren't cheap. Luckily, I only has one go bad.
