Ive been noticing an iregular idle in my Cupra...

boost gauge sits twitches as do revs only by 100 or 200 is this something to be worried about??

Car has HPFP, D.P & Non res system, Apr 2+ software, dbilas, Apr cooler...


Thanks

Are you sure it's not the rad cooling fan kicking in and making the revs dip?

The cooling fan draws a lot so puts more load on the engine whilst it's doing it's thing.

And mine, it must just be the nature of the beast.

Mine had a lumpy idle on stage 1 Revo, on standard map it didn't. Now i'm running stage 2+ it seems to have gone or is much less frequent. I think the timing/fuel settings can have something to do with it - but a whole host of other stuff too...
