Have not used my e70 in 1-2 months now.
Eccentric shaft motor went bad so I replaced it.
But I need Ista to calibrate it.
The eccentric shaft had some slight discoloration where the gear of the motor rides it.
Some say it’s normal, it should be normal, right? Same as a starter motor gear that has discoloration where it rides on the flywheel.
Others say it’s not normal and the shaft also has to be replaced.
At $1.2k a shaft, I’m hoping it is normal and it recalibrates. No other related issues to fried DME so that’s a relief.
One of these days I’ll get Ista…

Seems as it’s taking a lot of $ to keep it running, but the way I see it, it made it to 100k, with all the new stuff I put on, should make it another 100k.
