#1: 99 206 high revving on own accord Author: cinders30, Location: WiltshirePosted: Thu Feb 17, 2011 8:19 am ---- Hi,
My car has started to rev high usually in stand still or changing in low gear, it then backs off when you take the clutch up and accelorate!! I have had the idle valve changed and it was okay for a couple of weeks but has now started again today. Any ideas please would much appreciate it as i rely on my car. Thanks.

Anyway, i dont have a fix, just thought i would add my two pence worth!

Could be the MAF or MAP sensor.
Disconnecting the battery with reset the ECU to default.
