Hi to you all
I am from Germany and i am proud new RX-8 owner and i want to introduce myself to the Forum.

I am 22 years old and I´m from Germany. My previous Car was an Mercedes w209 CLK and now i love my RX-8 car

I´ve got some questions to you. I´m searching for an so called "specific fuel shell diagram" like this one:

For my older cars this allways helped me to understand the engine characteristics. But for the Mazda RX-8 Renesis Engine (231) I´ve never found this chart anywhere.
Perheaps someone of you has this chart or has bulid this with an OBD-Tool on an dynamometer?

This really woud delight myself

The other question is, how to check weather the automatic light regulation is working. On my Mercedes i allways could see the light 'nick/blink' when position the car-key on the 2nd Position. My RX-8 doesn´t do that. So is there an way to see the Light motors moving?

I really hope my english isn´t that bad

Greetings,

That looks like a specific fuel consumption curve. I don't think I've seen one for the RX-8.

As for the 'automatic light regulation', I'm guessing you mean to confirm that headlamp auto-leveling is working properly? I personally don't know of a feature in the car that confirms proper operation of the auto-leveler.

 

Welcome to the forum BTW.

 

Welcome to the club! Post pics of your rx8 will ya...

 

Thanks, thats the specific fuel consumption curve per loadlevel (internal preasure) and RPM. Finding one of these would be very great.
I think people with an ECU-Tuning could have this (perhaps only with theyr new data, but this also would help me)
Here is an picture of my car (Year 2004 - 231-Renesis)

Here in Germany the automatic leveling of the xenon-Lights is duty. And also the so called 'TÜV' technical monitoring club has to check, weather this works. I just wanted to check this myself before driving to 'TÜV' next year.
