Dyno Dynamics cant dyno an XI?

csu87 · 05-19-2015, 04:22 PM

Just got off the phone with a local shop in my new area and they are telling me they cant dyno my XI without pulling fuses and disabling my awd/dsc and blah blah blah.

Anyone else have this issue with a dyno dynamics dyno? Ive dynod on other awd dynos and never had an issue.

Just find a different place. There are probably more AWD dynos within 100 mile radius of Denver than anywhere else in the world

Yeah I will. Just these guys build Factory Five Cars as well, and I am going to check out one of the builds there and wanted to hop onto a dyno quick as well.

I have been on a Dyno dynamics with no problems. Sounds like they either only run it in rwd mode or don't know how to dyno an xi (nothing to it).

my guess is the later. i found another shop about 30 minutes farther from me with a dyno dynamics that can do it no problem.

My xi could not be dynoed on a dyno dynamics. I tried it twice and the car just freaks out.

wonder if it has to do with newer/older dyno dynamics.

The one I tried on was a bout six months old.

You have to turn traction control completely off but it is possible they didn't have the front rollers set up correvtly.
