#1: 180 idle problem Author: Dan-, Location: BiggleswadePosted: Mon May 02, 2011 9:46 am ---- 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

Try cleaning the VVT solenoid

#6: Re: 180 idle problem Author: Dan-, Location: BiggleswadePosted: Mon May 02, 2011 10:37 am ---- I've cleaned that hasnt made any difference, I can see a sensor on the tb looks like an icv, not sure what else I can try "/

#8: Re: 180 idle problem Author: NICKST, Location: Little hulton (worsley)Posted: Mon May 02, 2011 10:44 am ---- Clean the map sensor. Happend to me.
#9: Re: 180 idle problem Author: Dan-, Location: BiggleswadePosted: Mon May 02, 2011 10:52 am ---- Sorry to be a pain where is the map sensor please
#10: Re: 180 idle problem Author: NICKST, Location: Little hulton (worsley)Posted: Mon May 02, 2011 11:11 am ---- www.google.co.uk/m/sea...ensor#i=0. That's what it looks like it is located in-between the inlet manifold near the throttle body.
#11: Re: 180 idle problem Author: Dan-, Location: BiggleswadePosted: Mon May 02, 2011 11:20 am ---- Is it the thing u can by looking through the inlet manifold with a 9mm bolt or sumthing, looks kinda like a icv, when u undo the screw is there any things that'll cone of with it
#12: Re: 180 idle problem Author: Dan-, Location: BiggleswadePosted: Mon May 02, 2011 12:19 pm ---- 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
#13: Re: 180 idle problem Author: Dan-, Location: BiggleswadePosted: Mon May 02, 2011 12:46 pm ---- I'm really stumped now once it warms up it starts idling bad

If you are using cheap fuel it might pay you to fill with decent stuff
