idle

Picked up my new old Cordoba SX 16v yesterday and ive spent today tinkering. I have an erratic idle, which ive looked on here for tips on how to sort. Ive done the usual vaccum hose checks, throttle body cleaning and breather pipe checks but the problem still exists. :cry: Is there anything...

so 4 months ago i fitted the said 16v lump into my mk2 golf. using the digi 3.2 full management. the only sensors i didnt use were the charcoal evap and gearbox sensor for the speed readout (im using my existing 020 with cable drive). these errors obviously show up through vag-com. the...

Guys, what effects idle? I always allow mine to warm up (LCR) when starting from cold. So does my friend from work with an LC. When we leave work he has buggered off and I am left waiting ages before the idle speed drops from 1500 rpm to 800. It takes 5-7 minutes which I am pretty sure is...

over the last few days ive noticed that when i have to stop the revs will hold at 1100/1500 rpm for few seconds then drop off to around 800 rpm. and also when i start it from cold i go to drive off as normal but it stalls so i have to give it some revs as i pull off but after a few mins it ok...

just had my cupra 180bhp remapped. Was fine for 1days then i got in to car today and it has real rough idle almost like its missfiring. Also engine light keeps coming on and going off. Any ideas guys?

ok i seem to have a problem with my bam 225 lcr, the idle on it is quite rough not like ive lost a cylinder just quite bumpy. the car drives really well and smooth on part/full throttle so very much doubt its a coil pack, vag com is coming up with no faults the car is standard bar forge dv007...

Hi Guys, Had a search but i couldnt find anything so i'll try my luck... :) I have a 2001 Ibiza Sport 110 ASV on 88K, its had a remap to 140, now the problem is recently the car has been idling at just under 1k revs.. now im sure it should be idling at a round 500... ive just given it a...

Car idles lumpy as hell, which is expected from the cams but it wont idle after a rev or if you dip the clutch on the move it just stalls. if you sit on the spot and rev to about 2/2.5 k it starts to miss, but when you drive its fine, other thing is that when you accelerate low down in the...

Right folks having an annoyingly niggly issue with my LCR and as cooling is not my strong point hoping someone can offer up some advice. If I take my LCR out for a drive over say 20mins and then come home and let it cool down idling, the fan will kick in even through the temp gauge is sat rock...

Hi Guys, I'm new to the forum - I've got a 57 plate Leon FR TDi just over 18 months old with about 35k miles on it. When the engine returns to tick over there is a vibration through the pedals - feels like a bearing or something on the way out - anyone else come across the same thing - it...

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

Hello. I own a 1.6 16v Leon 1M 2002 BCB engine. After i disassembled the engine because it had 2 axial bearings damaged, i repaired the crankshaft because it was affected by the bearings, and i unjammed the pegs (i don't know if this is the term but the french is taquet) because some of...

Hey Guys I have a 1.9tdi 100 sport Ibiza 56 plate and today when i started her up she decided she wanted to idle at about 1100 -1200RPM instead of her usual 900RPM. A little reving on the throttle and a second later she went back to 900RPM I have done many small trips today and when...

Lambda sensor Fault codes! I keep getting Lambda sensor codes even though it has been replaced 3 times now! The last time was by guys I trust at Total Vag (formely Vagtech) for a proper bosch sensor acouple od months ago. It seems to not throw up as much if when I cold start I allow the iddle...

Hi all, It's a '96 1.9GTD Ibiza. An AAZ engine. I have spent days reading and searching, but I'm still not sure as I don't know if other peoples cars are relevant to mine. Main concern is idle speed. With A/C off it is at around 600rpm and is very uneven. When A/C is on it raises to...

hello everyone, My cupra R runs at 760/min on Vag com at idle my question is Is this to low it feels it and whats the cure vag-com to up it but then why has it dropped :confused: Thanks Mark

Guys and Girls, My cupra does not start up very nicely, you have to hold the key for a second or two more than my old fr tdi! I know it probably sounds minimal, but is it normal?! Also when starting from cold it idles very high at 1200rpm...but drops to 750 once warm! Can someone...

hi guys is it possible to alter idle speed on vag com for a leon cupra if so how thanks in advance

Sods law just before selling it, the Ghetto GTi is playing silly buggers:rolleyes: Idles and drives fine from cold - but when upto temp its got a random spooky habit of ticking over rough as hell or reving upto 1500 rpm - 2500 rpm all on its own accord, then will idle fine...:confused: It...
