strange idle and exhaust warning light
andyboygsi:
ever since i got my car its had a slightly strange idle, feels like it misses although the rev counter doesnt catch it
and now today after getting home from the dc show in scotland i am displaying the exhaust warning light.
will get it on vcds tomm but any ideas in the meantime?
cheers all
Tfsi_Mike:
My warning light is on due to lambda sensor to faulty. Has the odd hiccup on idle too vid of idle on my build thread
"tfsi mikes money pit"
Have you noticed any misfire or loss of power when driving?

no misfires no, it may be down a little bit on power but if so not very noticable as it kept up with my mates remapped gttd170 all the way home, popped into a shop for 4 mins tops, hopped back in and light came on

just had a listen, mine sounds exactly like that 100%, even my wife thought so and she is :stupid:

Well that is with counting a misfire on vcds. My light is on but due to sensor 2 (lambda) faulty
