Featured Replies

Hi,can anyone help with my wifes little felicia 1.3 1997.Basically when idling from cold or warm start it revs up and down on its own accord,if I disconnect the 7 pin plug on the throttle body(the cold start sensor?)it will tickover at level revs but it is too high roughly 1500-1700rpm.I have changed throttle body and gasket,cleaned all linkage,disconneted battery but nothing seems to get it back to normal,is a vagcom the only option?any advice most welcomed,many thanks

I had the same problem with mine a few weeks ago and nothing solved it apart from VAG-COM, it needs the throttle body position reset
