In the second pic checking adaptation load ranges. Double Click on the one in black (114 in first column) it should take you through the process of what to trouble shoot.

You may may need to reset your throttle body. You can also check the TB itself and see if it's blade open value is in spec or if you have a vacuum leak preventing adaptation.

it looks like the idle only adaptation value is having issues, not the driving "load" adaptation

Report back with findings

Old thread - but I'm in a similar spot and my adaptations look the same. When you click for more info, it wants you to put the car in 3rd gear, above 2100 rpm, and run with an engine load greater than 50% for 30 seconds.

Here's the kicker - WHERE on earth can I do that? 30 seconds is quite a long time to be in boost and I'll be going pretty quick considering my mods. Does anyone know if a dyno can add additional resistance to imitate a long steep hill? Am I overthinking this? I don't see how this setting would ever 'naturally' adapt these values given the circumstances.

I replaced my cam position sensor a few months back and this was a criteria it wanted as well, the other pictures I've seen of STAR have had more values in that table, mine just has n1.

Old thread, but i was looking information about this, and not find much. Here is my findings about SDS and this adaptation. I change engine and transmissions mounts - that reguire adaptation as well as sensor replacement.

This meant you have use 3rd gear or greater and have rpm level 2100rpm or greater. 30 second is not actually reguired. Can adapt just dirving and accelerate different throttle positions. However it is difficult to get all adaptations wisible fast and easily. Drive a lot.

After reset values, just drive and watch when adaptations show up. First you may have to drive several minutes to get it started. Need some practise anyway.

Sorry about Finnish language in picture.

I think it might require 30 seconds, just not consecutively. I tried several times to get the 3rd gear 50% throttle mentioned above and it wouldn't happen. The. For about two days I just did it every chance I got even if it was only a second. Uphill is easiest. Next time I checked it was adapted.

I need to check my adapatation memory again, but I swear the last time I checked I still only had n1, maybe n2 in the first two columns, that's it. And this is with at least 1k miles of driving under all sorts of conditions. No complaints on drivability though! So I'm not going to let it bother me I guess.
