yeah it is - if you hook it up to VAGCOM it will be around 850rpm - 900rpm but the gauge isn't totally accurate

Yeah dead on all the time, regardless of hot or cold, it just sits on there and doesn't move when idle.

What could cause that? The car has been Vagcom'd twice now and nothing has ever come up.

I don't honestly know I'm afraid  :sad:

Though reading through another thread in the main section it would appear a chap has a problem with his alternator  :undecided:
