hodaz 0 Posted October 8, 2009 Last few days (it has been very very cold) my VR has been idling steadily at about 1200rpm on tickover. It does seem to settle a little when the cars warmed up however. Is there something wrong is this normal for a VR when its very cold? I will have to double check the simple things like the throttle cable (I had to replace a water pipe in the dark a couple of days ago and might have knocked it.) Its so high it almost feels like the car is accelerating without me. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted October 8, 2009 yes, could be a stuck throttle cable, could be the dashpot is wound up too far. Just loosen it (13mm spanner) and wind it down about a turn or so. Might also be worth cleaning up th throttle body whilst you're there. Lube the side spring too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
