Title: rough tick over
Post by: postie on 13 November 2010, 14:16

i have a mk4 130 tdi 51 plate and while i was sat waiting in the local car park the car started to shake on tick over, it did this for about a minute until i reved it up.
is this the MAF causing the problem if so do i need a new one or can it be cleaned
or is it some thing else?
i hope some one has the answer to my little problem
thanks for all and any help on this

Get it on Vag-Com to scan for fault codes.

Anything else abnormal for instance the temperature needle shooting up and down?

Just remember not to rule the MAF out if it don't come up on a scan as the MAF rarely comes up anyway.

You'd need to do some logging to find out if it's defo gone or not.
