Hi all,

This is my first thread, so beare with me...... My girfriend has a 2001 Y-reg 1.6 (AYD Engine) VW Beetle and it won't hold on fast idle between 2500-3000 RPM. Any ideas?
It's been into our local garage and they can't find anything wrong. The Air mass meter, Throttle position sensor, Idle control valve have been checked and tested.
Could an air leak cause this?

Many thanks in advance!

Matt.

Simple, just change the thermostat and ECT. If you're car was reacting an idle surge, check the fuel control and air supply loop of the engine as often. Take a look at this site, it may gradually help www.dsm.org/how-tos/tttt/tttt3.html (http://www.dsm.org/how-tos/tttt/tttt3.html).
