so my AGU has a clutch switch...
« on: 20 June 2012, 11:16 »
Any ideas why? Just found it while I was having a poke around under the dash to run some wires. I've been having a bit of a problem with revs rising slightly during gearchanges so I'm wondering if this could be the culprit. Just about to get it tested to see if it's actually doing anything and if I have 12v at the plug end...

oooo interesting, as my gf 1.8 na also has a problem of revs slightly rising when changing, but also on initial pull off its like the car wants to stall , so you put the clutch in a bit and the revs go bonkers!!!
