balboa 0 Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 Hi guys, over the past week my mk2 vr6 seems to be having idiling problems, whilst im driving the the car doesn't seem to be as smooth as she should be, the best way i can describe it is that it feels lumpy and rough almost like the cars coughing, also as i start the car up the revs shoot up past 2000 revs but does come back down to normal after about 30 seconds...whilst the car is ticking over if i turn the lights on or the fan heater on the revs shoot down and the car stalls....anyone have any idea what could be wrong, any help abd advice is greatly appreciated....many thanks Link to post Share on other sites
