idle

Hey peeps hope someone may have a wee bit of assistance here-am getting a bit of a rattle under idle coming from the back of the exhaust it seems,but when giving a light rev it disappears.Could it be an exhaust mounting?Dropped my mate off after Knockie,then drove half a mile to my place when it...

Hi there guys & gals, when starting my leon for the first time in the mornings it seems to have a rough idle, almost like it is being throttled, splirts quite abit until it comes of the revs, I know you might say they all do that a bit, mine has not always had this rough idle. I am...

Hi all, Getting a very slight surging when the car is cold, for about 2 minutes after start up if I hold the pedal constant, which I never had in my cupra, anyone else get this surging on start up ? Also my raised idling +- 3 minutes, when the car has just been started seems to lasted much...

Just recently (maybe related to the hot weather?) although not every time, when I start up my Leon TDI 110 (02 plate - 49k, quite recently dealer serviced) the idle will sometimes rise to a steady 1100 rpm approx where it will sit for anything up to about 30-40 seconds, then return to it's usual...

right i had this episode before and came back again, on my 2nd( new engine )also its only covered 7 k on new engine any ways took it to the dealers they then changed the valve stem seals as they thought it was the course of the smoking stop for about 10 days then slowly started again so...

Recently had 40k service carried out on my 210 LCR. Since it was done (or I've only noticed since) whilst the car is ticking over there is an occasional 'blip' in the tickover. If sitting in the car you feel it very slightly and the tacho needle moves fractionaly and when standing by the...

As its say's above .... Done a search.... Could it be th N75 ?? EGR is turned off - its due a service - But wish to get this sorted before I do the normal 10K service 65K on the clock had Cam service 5k ago.. Okay over a year ago....:whistle: Any thoughts peeps./.

Hi folks, Driving back from work today, I got home, parked up and noticed after reversing into my space the revs starting going a bit funny, not literally, because I wasnt laughing...(:think: ) but seemed to be going from 800rpm to 1200rpm in rapid succession. Eventually about 10 seconds...

Had this problem since winter and now its doing my head in. The car surges between 900-1500rpm when idling, sounds like it’s going to drive off by itself, I have tried cleaning the idle control valve and still had the problem even swapped it with my mates and my car still surged where his...

Right then, ive noticed something very strange recently ever since i de-snowscreened and added a PD160 intake; not a problem, merely a strange observation: When in Gear, Clutch disengaged, at idle: The slightest touch of the acc pedal makes the car instantly rev to 1200 with a noticable...

Drops to 500rpm when put clutch in, had diagnostic check done by Seat found coolant temperature sensor faulty. But no difference when changed. Check done again no problems found. Any ideas people?? Thanks :think:

whats the craic lads on my mk2 1.6 when idleing the car sometimes rev to about 1150rpm and then falls back to 850rpm but then sometimes it idles okay the problem started back in dec when it was very cold but the other way round i.e the revs where dropping now she has 83k Miles on her any...

When my car is just iddling i can hear my standard DV dumping on idle (i think) its a kind of whooshing noise.:confused: :confused: :confused: Is that normal?:shrug: The DV seems to be a lot louder than normal aswell, car has done 46K:)

ok peeps....when i started the car this evening the rev counter needle kept going up and down at idle? from about 800rpm to 850rpm, up and down continuously until i reved it gently and it settled at its usual 800. car seems fine otherwise... ideas?

Have been noticing in the last couple of weeks that the boost guage has been showing a drop off in the vacuum pressure at idle. Used to sit at 20VAC quite happily. Its slowly moved from 20 to 19, then to 18, and this morning 17psi VAC. Between gear changes the gauge flicks back to 21psi...

hi guys does anyone know where the idle air control valve is as i think it is playing up because on tick over the revs are all over the place?maybe some one else has had the same problem?

What RPM do your Cupra's idle at from cold? Mine hits around 1200, but then eventually drops to 1k ish. Is this normal as my megane never did this

Peeps For those with LC who have the rough idle, I seem to have found a solution (for my car anyway) I tried Shell optimax, octane booster, grounding kit, maf change, air-filter replacement, coolant sensor change..... But, for the first time ever this week I put BP Ultimate (97ron)...

Hi all, noticed that once the car is warm, the idleing is a bit jumpy, say 100rpm in the 900rpm range. is it me being paranoid? when i 1st got it was smooth as anything. not had its service yet.. :redface: also anybody work out why the electric windows have decided to stop 99% and...

Went out in the wife's 02 Cupra tonight, quick ten minute run then parked up. When I went to restart it a few minutes later it took a good few seconds to fire up, and then idled at about 2k revs. Turned the ignition off but it continued to run on for a few seconds. Started it up again with the...
