Have searched, but can't find nothing exact, few niggly things!
« on: 21 July 2009, 21:46 »
Mpg is very very low, even when changing gear under 2000 revs, only getting around 22-24mpg. About 28 on a longish run. Temp sensor seems fine.

Another thing, when my car is idle, the revs are either quite low, or quite high, havent a clue what it is.

Any ideas?

Car is a 1.8t btw!

Thanks in advance.

Easy enough to fit myself or is it a garage job?
