#17: Re: This Months Issues, by MrrNoName lol Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Thu Mar 24, 2011 11:02 am ---- do i clean that in the same way? what does the MAP do?
#18: Re: This Months Issues, by MrrNoName lol Author: Davels, Location: NorfolkPosted: Thu Mar 24, 2011 11:09 am ---- I have a MAP and ICV for sale in the FS section if you need cheapish second hand replacments. The parts have only covered 50K and were replaced when trying to find an idle problem(very different to yours) new parts made no difference.
** EDIT **
Acutally scrap that, forgot to check what car you had first. The bit's I have are for a 2.0 petrol engine, sorry Last edited by Davels on Thu Mar 24, 2011 11:12 am; edited 1 time in total

just clean it in the same way, carb cleaner

#21: Re: This Months Issues, by MrrNoName lol Author: JE_180, Location: WiltshirePosted: Mon Jun 20, 2011 2:01 am ---- That's a bit of a s**t solution... they've seen it before but doesn't know what causes it... lol great.
#22: Re: This Months Issues, by MrrNoName lol Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Mon Jun 20, 2011 2:24 am ---- yup, they originally tried to charge me the diag fee and 2 and a half hours labour just to tell me that they had no idea why its happening. after hours of discussion (lol) they dropped the charges and let me leave.
Their master fitter even said to me that its pointless bringing a car in without the engine management light on because if its not flagging up a code they wont be able to diagnose it. How bad is that! not all faults show up on the EML!
EDIT: first the dealers told me that these *faults* were designed into the ECU to aid with pollution and that the *stepper motor* was designed to drop the revs in uneven bouncy steps...
(i know the stepper motor aids with pollution but im pretty sure its not designed to make the cars revs bounce all over the place lol...)
after they realised I knew how an engine worked they quickly changed that story... LOL
