revs problem
« on: 29 April 2011, 22:14 »
My revs have been hunting when stopping at light or when just putting it in neutral when slowing down... the revs jump up and down between 500-1000 rpm... and sometimes when i boot it the rev sticks to 1500rpm ...when im stopped..until i tap the gas then it just slowly drops to the right idle revs...

iv cleaned throttle body so aint that...

the car pulls fine and drives fine.. my mpg is also fine.. it is realyyy p!ssing me off now.. as sometimes the revs dip like the car wants to cut out but it doesnt... then it just settles... happens everytime i come to a set of lights  :angry: :angry: :angry:

anyone have any other ideas on what it could be?? as vagcom aint picking up nothing either  :undecided:

Think clutch switch symptoms are if revs stay high,wen ours are dropping and settling at normal tickover well thats wot mines doin :undecided: did ur revs stay weird for long after cleaning?
