Is there a list of PIDs around to allow Torque to pull more data from the OBD2 stream? Would be nice to have oil temp and air/fuel ratio. I see a number of Gen2 conversations re. the Torque app and PIDs, but not much for the R53.

 

I can’t help you with PIDs or Torque, but I can tell you that you can’t monitor oil temp or AFR via OBD2. The R53 doesn’t have an oil temp sender or a wide band O2 sensor.

 

Well, that hoses my top 2. Thanks for the info.

 

Why would you think you can get AFR? Mini's ECU is just as foggy when it comes to AFR. Why, it has a narrow band O2 sensor, and the control system is either Bang-bang hunting control, or dumb lookup tables for open loop, which applies to 99.5% of my Mini's application.

 

Well, because I don't know what I'm doing. I know 80's BMW engines pretty well, and they started using narrow band O2 sensors with Motronic 1.0 in '84(?). But outside of those engines, I'm pretty helpless. I figured that engine management had to start using wideband O2 sensors eventually, I just don't know when that sort of thing began.
