idling problem any help?
« on: 17 May 2009, 19:06 »
hi all i got a 1.4 mk4 golf if anyone can help would be appreciated?
when sat in my car whilst its idling the revs are going up and down all the time very slightly which is annoying and obvisouly not right? what is this problem?
also when i am driving along at say 50mph in 5th gear at 2500rpm if i put the clutch in and brake when the revs drop from 2500rpm-idling rpm sometimes it just goes past and conks out?
and the battery light comes on?
any help please guys?

ive just started having this prob on my 1.8 20v, but also when im driving along it will sometimes bog down and loose power, also have the lumpy tick over sometimes. is every now and then though. i was going to replace MAF meter first and if that deosnt work would coil packs be the next thing to try.  :sad:
