Don't know weather any of you guy can help me, when I turn the car on the revs go to 1300 then drop down to about 400 up to 1000 and back down to 500 or so then settles at 800 and then when I drive the car and depress the clutch they drop down to 500 and back to 800, but sometimes while accelerating hard and depressing the clutch it stalls. It's only started doing this today
Thanks dan

Cheers I had my suspicions but I always though as it was an electric throttle they wouldnt use icv I'll go take a look, if I find it and take it out to clean will it go back in easily

Well I'm removed the map sensor and it looks immaculate nothing onit, so cleansed it and put it back seems okay but I'm not sure weather it's a warm engine issue. So I'm gonna go for a spin let the engine warm up and see what happens and I'll report back

redex or similar, octane booster etc, might help.
If you are using cheap fuel it might pay you to fill with decent stuff
