That would be a bit of a problem if the adaptations were reset lol

Maybe it is not a great idea to reset adaptations with the 75C, 70C and 55C thermostats.

I'd say it's more of a problem to not reset.

Whatever rf_psau_i is at the time the engine is switched off will be written to the adaption EEPROM. If rf_psau_i is never updated again (as a result of TMOT = 80 not being hit) then that adaption value will stick for forever. If environmental conditions have changed in the mean time then rf_psau_i (saved as an adaption) could be actively throwing your RF calculation away from where it should be.


I'd suggest for those running a lower temp thermostat to adjust what I've called k_rf_p_saug_i_tmot_min (0xE5EC in the tune file) to a lower threshold temperature.


Edit: I just had a quick look at the other parameters that use tmot as a threshold to trigger various behaviours. Seems most other modules use TMOT == 70 to 75ish. Probably means that those running lower temp thermostats on the street should consider adjusting some of these other parameters as well, depending on where they see TMOT sitting most of the time.
