    Hey. I have a problem. Namely, in my Astra, the error P0170 appears and disappears. I've read that it's a poor mix. A familiar mechanic said that the first lambda to exchange because it reacts badly. After its replacement, nothing has changed. After buying the car I was searching a bit from what it could be. And so I checked the value from the flow meter is about 2.7g / s on idle, so it's OK. Lambdy, when they get hot, oscillate first the more violently the other calmer. At some point, I gave up the error and I noticed that he was leaving. The engine works nicely, evenly and accelerates well. I recently added a gas installation, but this has not affected this problem.
    Where to look for causes? Maybe the electrician does not touch somewhere?

    By browsing other forums / posts regarding the same error of other users. They gave this value (or its reckoner per kg / h - I do not want to specifically look for it now), writing that it is in TIS for idling.

    Check for leaks in the intake. maybe he grabs the left wing.

    Finally, I bought a meaningful interface and a few flowers came out. Namely, besides P0170, inactive P0100 (flowmeter signal too low) and P0460 (Fuel level, signal too high) were still hung.
    Any suggestions? In the free moment, I think I will take off the connection between the collector flow and see if there are any cracks.

    P0100 may suggest a flowmeter failure which is quite common but may also indicate a failure of the motor controller. This time, it helps to provide a separate mass on the flow meter. But it is suggested to first install another meter and observe the OBD corrections.

    A separate mass - In the sense, to add a new mass to the flow meter? The driver somehow gives it or how?

    Gentlemen, does anyone know what exactly should be the values shown by the flow meter? Some source.

    And you do not have blind EGR because I suppose it's AG.
    Catalyst not clogged?

    Now with LPG it will be difficult to detect it, I would like it, because if so much I passed it is a pity to spend hundreds of PLN on the diagnosis, it is better to spend on service and gasoline.

    I took over ABtech and I read the following at idling speed:
    800RPM
    Mass Air Flow sensor - voltage is buoy 0.20-0.45V
    Mass Air Flow sensor - 7kg / h
    Intake air temp. - 1.45V
    Intake air temp - 34C

    And it is ~ 8C outside
    It's strange to me

    Reading error of the flowmeter - inactive during reading
    Mixing error - active

    Tamped ECU, standard fault in Opel 1.8.

    Hello,

    I have astra x18xe with LPG, error P0170 appeared.
    The car runs standardizing. There were only problems on the cold engine that it lacked power. After 2-3 minutes everything was back to normal.
    The car was at the mechanic's, apparently, he checked everything from the lambda to the fuel pressure injectors, the flow meter was replaced because the old one reportedly showed too low flow.
    And he claims that only mechanically, for example, valves can be burnt out. And I want over 3,000 for the repair.
    I don't want to believe it.

    Do nothing, because it will not work, Opel from those years is like that, it lands on the scrap metal when it breaks down.

    Check the valve covers, if you try to remove the oil filler cap with the engine running and it is strongly sucked into the engine, the pneumothorax in the cover is damaged and the engine catches the left air. Often gesto in opelki :) driving on a lean mixture results in burnout of the valves!

    For sure ecu issue. There is fault inside of ecu.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the intermittent P0170 error in a Z18XE engine, specifically in an Astra vehicle. The user reports that the error appears and disappears, suggesting a poor air-fuel mixture. Initial diagnostics included replacing the lambda sensor, but the issue persisted. Subsequent checks revealed additional error codes, including P0100 (flowmeter signal too low) and P0460 (fuel level signal too high). Suggestions from other users included checking for intake leaks, verifying the flowmeter's functionality, and ensuring proper grounding for the flowmeter. The user also noted that the engine runs smoothly despite the error. Further diagnostics indicated potential issues with the ECU and valve covers, which could lead to air intake problems. The conversation highlights the complexity of diagnosing the P0170 error, especially in vehicles with LPG installations.
