Ported and polished throttle body make any difference on a vr?? Anyone got one or had one on there motor and did it make any difference to driveability??

Got a spare maf and I think I found the problem. I have got a pipercross airfilter that kept coming off, now secured it properly. The idle sticks around 900rpm for about 10secs then drops to 750. Going to change maf and give the throttle boddy a proper clean to see if that helps. Thanks for all the replys guys you have all been very helpfull. Nice one Pete.

Got new temp switch and it still has not worked. Problem is its killing my battery. Anybody got any ideas as its driving me mad. Thanks in advance pete.

Hi everyone I have a problem with my vr. The engine has been rebuilt all top end and new chain guides. Before the engine was removed everything worked fine (bar the engine), as said has been rebuilt and put back in but now the battery light stays on. I am getting the altenator checked but I was wondering if anything else could cause this problem. All earths have been checked, all fuses checked, battery checked and I am now at the end of my teather. Is there a charging relay??? If so where and which one?? Thanks and regards in advance Pete.

I had a bump last year (scratched wheels) and my insurance company have took 2yrs no claims off me, and put my insurance up by £400. Now this to me dont sound right to me. To say im p****ed off is a understatement. So has anyone else had this problem??
