#1: RPM & sluggish Engine Author: Linkpad, Location: WalesPosted: Wed Aug 17, 2011 12:02 pm ---- Hi i Have a 2000 206 GTI 138 and i'm getting some wierd problems i reckon its misfiring somewhere down the line.
Firstly when i accelerate and let go off the throttle completely the RPM counter needle just sticks at that RPM and takes ages to go back down to idle is that normal ?
Secondly im getting wierd noises like baning noises when i let go of the throttle at low speeds along with car wobbling and a strange engine rattle that only occurs on accelerating (doesn't always do it).
I can bare the knocks and rattles at low speeds but i can't bare the thought of my engine cylinders misfiring !!

Any exhaust leak? That will play havoc with fuelling.

the knocks could be anything,loose exhaust,worn mounts under the hood,loose suspension components etc
