Maxx ECU Trigger issues

[jade]

I understand that the Maxx ecu has issues with Audi triggers, I am currently tuning and have sync issues... has anyone got any solutions I was hoping not to upgrade as that would possibly involve removing the Gearbox and flywheel to fit a Vag 60-2 trigger kit

Thank you

You can weld a tooth wheel on the crank pulley and use a Hall cherry sensor. But it needs some fabrication, welding, etc... Also Alex from Ultra performance has a 60-2 flywheel, but you need to remove the gearbox as well. I am using 60-2 crank seal with my Maxx

Thanks for your reply Tom... Seems all roads point to removing the gear box.... What is involve in the crank seal 60- 2 .... Just the crank seal unit / fitting ?

You are welcome. Well, rear main crank seal isn't a big deal. You just have to remove the gearbox and that's 95% of the work done, then it's just a crank seal unit. Ideally is to have a rear main block surface really clean, properly degreased, otherwise it won't seal properly. I wasn't using any special tool for this, just a few bolts and tightening them bit by bit and that's all..

Ok, So you also need to change the flywheel so crank shaft seal sensor gets its signal....

No need to change the flywheel. if you use a 60-2 rear crank main seal, there is no need to change anything...only swap from stock main seal to 60-2 main seal. Only a hole or a groove for the cable needs to be grinded, otherwise nothing
It is necessary to distinguish whether we are talking about a 60-1 flywheel or a 60-2 rear main seal.
