Hi, was just wandering if anyone knew how to lift the engine idol a tiny bit.
When its warmed up it runs at about 800 ish. I think thats too low and rocks the engine a little and gives it an opportunitiy to stall as well. Just wanted to lift it 2 0r 300 more to help it run a bit smoother.
206 gti v plate.

that idol is fine mate, mine is currently idling at 550rpm but doesn't feel like it's going to stall at all, even my local garage advised me that it's running ok then it's ok to leave it for a while as it will cost £167 to supply and fit new idle control valve
