Diagnose an Engine Misfire that Doesn't Throw A Code

- My truck never seems to throw a code or light when it misfires, so using Torque and a Bluetooth scanner we can dig a little deeper and find out which cylinder is having the issue.

Wow ! I have had an issue with my BMW M3 a solid year and do not want to throw $$ at parts ,this is well worth the effort and Awesome Info !!! Thank you Very Much
Thanks for watching! Another thing you may want to consider is purchasing an OBDII to USB BMW diagnostic cable from ebay. With this, you can download INPA and NCSExpert and pretty much run full diagnostics on the car, as well as change different parameters. The cable I bought was around $20, but I think there are a few different cables for different years. I was able to turn off the airbag light and code in a Bluetooth Aux input on an E60.
Awesome. I happen to have the same truck with the same problem. Perfect vid!
Exactly what I needed. Thank you
Cool, thanks! I’ve Torque Pro for a long time and I had no idea it had these features(dur!).
Excellent information. I have the Torque reader and Bluetooth...works very well. I'm having misfire on my 1997 Ford F-150..NO Code reading/check engine light. Now I know how to check this...thanks
Thanks for watching! I hope you're able to track it down.
Any update bro?
This aplication can determine misfire cylinder from fuel injector or electrical (ignition coil ,spark plug)?
Good video and explanation.
Thanks, i'm glad it was helpful to you!
thanks for video, do you know from which web page could i download pids?
If the misfire is vacuum related is there anyway to figure that out with software?
Will I need to find a mazda pid to access the misfire info?
This was helpful thanks!
How do i make it capadable for nissan? I dont see nissan on the list
Hi, many thanks for the vid. I tried this on a Honda civic 1.4L SE but I'm getting the message "your ecu doesn't seem to support mode $06". I see others online with the same problem while using the Elm scanner. . Does anybody know a fix for this with the Elm scanner or is there another scanner or method available that can get mode 6 info from the civic ecu? Many thanks
I had used think tool mini and saw some miss fires in random cylinders. Like 5-6 miss fires in c#1 3-4 in c#4 1 misfire c#2 1 miss fire in c#3 in a 30-40 minutes trip. But there's no stored fault codes and vehicle driver just fine. It's my 2016 Mazda CX-5 2.5L skyactive. Should be worried about it?? It drives just nice and I get decent gas mileage too. Thank you in advance 😌
Hi, Yesterday apply this method , been driving about 20 minutes , no hard acceleration, just light drive, and the app show the next information :
MID:$a7 TID:$0c
Misfire counts for last/current driving cycles(calculated) - Misfire Cylinder 6 Data
Max: 65,535Count Min: 0Count
Test result value: 1Count
PASS
MID:$a8 TID:$0c
Misfire counts for last/current driving cycles(calculated) - Misfire Cylinder 7 Data
Max: 65,535Count Min: 0Count
Test result value: 3Count
PASS
Today I did the same procedure, but only for about 5 minutes and it shows this :
MID:$a9 TID:$0c
Misfire counts for last/current driving cycles(calculated) - Misfire Cylinder 8 Data
Max: 65,535Count Min: 0Count
Test result value: 1Count
PASS
So , i don't know why yesterday, with 20 minutes of driving, shows 0 counts on cylinder 8, and now with 5 minutes of driving 1 count.And 3 misfires hits a signal of bad coil?
My vehicle is a F-150 2011 Limited,6.2 have issues little shaking/vibration, no engine light on.
Spark plugs motorcraft new, fuel injectors cleaned .
What do you recommend? Thank very much.
does it work with any car ?
Quick question about custom PID's, is there a resource to find them online? Torque has the base ones which is great, however I'd like to find the custom ones as you mentioned. I have a gen 4 Taurus, and can't find anything yet. Thanks for the video!
The best resource I have found has been forums online! I know this is a little vague :/ Thanks for watching!
Hey, I know this is a little old but thanks.. I have a 2001 Grand Jeep Cherokee that is misfiring , but no codes. On Torque Pro,I added Pre-defined set from within app . Only adds 3 temp options. I don't see misfire pids.
Brother what does mean test incomplete and dependant test.bank 1 sensor 2.
? My torque pro scanned to 100 percent like three times and it only comes up with like 16 green bars I can only scroll down like 4 clicks? I don’t have misfire section on my 2004 4runner does anyone else have it?
Which bluetooth scanner did you use ?
Name?
Thank you!😃👍🏻
As i understand adding more PID won't hurt. In my full version of Torque for GM (i have Chevy Traverse) there are additional pid listed as "Injection Pulse" and "Misfire Cylinder 1-12". So i just add all of those. Sounds right?
Stan732 yes. But doesn't mean that it'll work on your vehicle
The truck I'm working on doesn't throw a code even if you unplug an injector wire so the app isn't reading misfires from what I can tell. Everything else seems to work fine
Hey i have a misfire on my truck possibly a couple I also have a f150 5.4 and cannot figure out how to get the misfire counts on torque. How did you get them on there
Anthony Pirrone do the first part of the video and manage the pids for your vehicle.
I was hoping to see the result with the misfires count increasing. Because now we still don't know if it works. If it did, the misfire count should already be greater than zero in the video, right?
You probably dont care but if you're stoned like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all of the latest movies on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my brother for the last few weeks xD
@Kylo Nikolai definitely, I've been using instaflixxer for years myself =)
Hi i google Pids for Scirocco but theres no results pl advise where i could get the pids for Scirocco? Thanks for the video.
Thanks for the comment; there might not be any specific PIDs for that car, I have run into a similar issue with some BMW cars, Torque isn't able to read the specifics because of the car's protocol it uses.
How do you know how to setup a PID for misfires? Need it for a Nissan Maxima 1999. Im not seeing PID's listed in the torque forums.
Could you make a tutorial how to find the PID information?
Thanks for watching! I think there's a Nissan plugin for Torque called "Advanced LT for Nissan", and i think it'll add them in. I haven't tried the plugin myself, but hopefully it will be a step towards getting your issue fixed!
No problem, thanks for the video. Unfortunately the nissan plug is only for year 2000+
Were do you get your PIDs ?
There are some default ones for various manufacturers built into Torque, but I found some others on one of the f150 forums, not totally sure which one! Thanks for the comment!
How accurate are the elm code reader ?
Get Veepeak or BAFX
the information for this online seems lacking for some reason. i have have this for close to 10 years at this point and i am just now ready to play detective to see how to track down a misfire on my trailblazer
Thx brother!
No problem, I appreciate the thanks!
I did that and nothing appears
Will it work for Diesel cars?
It works on my 1999 diesel motorhome..7.3L
Great video. Do you know if the lite version of this software (Free) does the misfire?
Thanks, I am glad the video could be of some help! Off the top of my head, I can't remember if it does or not. If I remember correctly, the lite version is feature-limited and is mainly used to make sure your adapter works with the app, and the paid version "unlocks" more features and functionalities.
I have random misfires on all cylinders
When i run the test results, it doesnt show much. Just o2 sensor stuff. I cant see any cylinder misfire info
I takes a minute or two scan before you see results
@@RighteousJudgement911 i let it run through 100% twice. More then a few minutes. Itt wouldnt show cylinder info
Make sure your latest PIDS are selected for your make and model.
@@RighteousJudgement911 did that from the list. Followed the guides and recommendations.
@@nealdz1031 All I can say i just got mine today and I see all the cylinder info. Not to be smart did you scroll up? And does it say refresh on top of the screen?
Just did this, found the cause of my studder, in overdrive, going up hill steady. Coil #1 derfed it. Once it got warm, it gave up it's ghost. This apparently caused 3 and 7 to skip a beat once each.
First ride, 15 misfires, then first hill jumped to 27. Now, all 0's.
Hoppy.
Thx.
I have no code test results in torque showed all
Green but state misfire count 1 on cylinder
I have change spark plug but still
ignition coil swap
Mind shows rich to lean what could cause this
That does not work on Diesel engines, right?
oh my lord my God guide me to good way and increase my gain and wealth please rise my health and all God believer oh my God let me happy all time and erase my sins and fault and lower my grief ameen 🤲 📿 ☪️🔳🏳️🌱🌸
overdrive means final gear. High gears aren't used under high loads unless you are going like 120 miles an hour. Just noticed you didn't understand what overdrive means.
Alright just go back to minecraft and shut the fuck up.
@@MBWchannel I've been there too, drove around a Toyota tundra, turning off overdrive, and cruising in 4th gear instead of 5th gear on the highway wasting gas, wasting money. Lol why are you such an asshole?
@@MinecraftSurge Sorry I was hangry, I have been thinking about spaghetti all day long. I apologize for being a dick and an asshole. I finally got my spaghetti and took a bath.
