Hi makkan00

Sorry for teasing you about having a Diesel car We have a TV program in the UK called 'Top Gear' in which one of the presenters, Jeremy Clarkson, often refers to Diesel as 'the devil's fuel' .

If you don't get readings for Air Pressure (the dial next to the temperature dial) and your load is always 100% then maybe something is wrong, but I'm just guessing as I'm not sure what the load value is exactly. It seems to be a percentage of boost pressure or rather maximum boost pressure. I think James Littler explained something about this in the Carman topic http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=207 and it seems that the load value is a percentage of actual boost or air going into the engine compaired to the maximum amount that could be going in. I have noticed that for my car:
Not moving pressure: 45 kPa load 22%
Driving normally pressure varies between: 50-90 kPa, load 25-40%
Going uphill pressure can go up to 130-150 kPa, load 55-70%
Going down a steep hill pressure 22 kPa load 11%
Accelerating pressure up to 217 kPa, load up to 100% (Max boost is 1.15 Bar in my ECU)
