Title: idle up and down
Post by: Wallpaper_01 on December 14, 2012, 09:09:02 am
Got in the car this morning, drove maybe 10 miles and stopped at a junction and it sounded like it was struggling, a bit of a bumpy idle. Then drove another 10 miles and stopped. On idle it was dropping quite low then going up to 1500rpm then back down and continued like this... It's down to 30 miles on fuel, but been this low before and not noticed this before

Any ideas what to check first? I'm gonna check oil and fuel up first.

Thanks,

Dan

The part you will need is the N revision PCV. I cant get the part number as I am on my smartphone but if you do a search on here for PCV. There are plenty of threads that will include the part number. If no one else has posted it in 15 mins time I will be home and can dig out the part number for you.
