Yes, the E-Pace is a CUV. It's the wife's but it's a nice car to potter about it - it's only the D150. I will drive that when the weather is poor namely due to the silly tyres the Alfa comes on (and...

Are you seeing FBKC at all? High load low RPM does seem knock limited. Are you over your load limits values at all, which will mean your changes may have limited impact.

Why not just correct the fuelling?

Also how is the commanded AFR logging incorrectly but the O2 sensor logging OK?
