muttley 0 Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 my idle is at 500 rpm when warmed up. i've been told this is fine but every other VR^ i've been in idle's higher. Link to post Share on other sites
Tel 0 Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 mine is about 800 when warm but fluctuates about 100 either side. Think I need to have a look at the idle control valve. As long as it's stable, sounds like yours is sweet Link to post Share on other sites
muttley 0 Posted December 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 yeah it's stable, it fluctuates if i boot it for a bit then leave it to idle straight after, but only does it for say about 10 seconds then goes back to 500 rpm Link to post Share on other sites

MJ Vr6 79 Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 Seems like either someone has messed with the clocks before, or it is @ 500rpm.If you are coming to the NWMeet on the 21st, then Shane, our VAGCOM Diagnoser will be there with machine at hand, so you can see what your VR is idling at.If you want it checked sooner, he does evening mobile call outs.. £30 a pop.07956195313 Link to post Share on other sites
