idle

I have a MK2 66 plate1.4 FR TSI 150 automatic. I absolutely love the car, had it since January, it's done 45k. When I bought it it had a slight judder on idle not really noticeable. I hate the start stop so have it running. The revs dont change at all, it just has a judder. So had it to SEAT...

Hi all. My mk2 leon Cupra has a little judder misfire on idle - no rev change or codes. It shakes the car slightly - no performance loss when driving Its been doing it for the past 10k miles and its not really causing a problem just doing my head in Things that haven't worked... - All 4 fuel...

Hi all, My 2008 Leon 1.6 petrol (1p1) engine code BSE has been misfiring on idle for the last few days. When on higher revs and normal driving it seems to run fine. On idle it knocks, misfires and generally sounds terrible. Idle is around 650rpm which is lower than usual. When the engine is...

Hello, I am getting this fault code consistently and its bringing on limp mode :( The code does not reappear if it is cleared whilst on throttle and kept accelerating; however on deceleration, when nearly at idle the fault code reappears. When sitting at idle, a little blip (only a couple...

Hi all, Right my mk1 Cupra has developed an idling issue which was very random but now more and more so. Idle is very irritac (excuse spelling!) and when I clutch it often now just conks out!! This is very VERY annoying at junctions, roundabouts etc! :( While on idle its hovering around 500...

Since buying this car, I have loved and hated it. This has just started without any alterations or anything being done to the car. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJ3MZIPgZJE the video shows how when idle it has a strange dull rattle, but the moment the revs increase it disappears. The...

Today when i was on my way home from work i was sitting at traffic lights and every now and then a vibration could be felt from the car. I have done some research and it seems that the engine mounts can cause this. I have had an intermittent creaking noise from the front of the car for a while...

Hi all, having driven at 30mph speeds for 15 minutes, would you expect the engine temp to drop from 90c if you sat there idling with the engine on? Maybe you would as it's diesel?

2002 IBIZA 130 TDI SPORT the car runs very lumpy when cold. The engine wobbles like its misfiring. When it gets to running temp it runs smooth. Had it checked out and it’s coming up with nothing. Everything is working fine. No codes at all. ANY IDEAS?

Hi everyone, I have two probs with my '98 90hp tdi Alhambra. The first and most urgent problem is that today it became extemely difficult to change gear. The clutch works fine. The gear lever is very stiff in all directions, 1st and reverse are impossible to select. I had to drive home in...
