Happened a couple of times now leaving work start the car (stone cold)and the car idles at 1200rpm and slowly rises up. I turn off the engine start the car again and it idles as it should from cold at 1100rpm and drops to the usual 680ish rpm after a couple of minutes of driving. Whats the likely cause of the revs being high to start with ? Cheers

Vibra technic engine mounts for vr6 are they worth doing ?
Jon_vr6 replied to john46's topic in Drivetrain
Ive got all 3 vibratechnic fast road mounts all good here -
No thats fine. I mainly asked just for future reference lots of threads end with no solution being posted so when people have the same problem and search they end up with no answer. You on the otherhand did so all good.

These for a vr6? Do you mind putting part numbers up
-
Nice glad you found the problem

Mine had green corrosion on the positive and neg battery connections clean both of them up and check earth point behind battery. Do you get a click from the starter when you turn the key and try and start the car? If so the above solved my problem.

Looks like mine mate

No worries

Yeah it was broke on the seat base were the heat sensor is. Theres a wiki guide somewhere.

How do you order from the guy off facebook?

If they buzz its usually down to a loose connection had it in mine. Heated seat element Wire partially broke caused the relay to buzz, bit of soldering jobs a goodun

Was going to say there must be 2

Blast from the past good to see the old girl is going strong

Where did you buy it from?

So it is likely the blue one that was the cause

Id double check the rocker cover gasket on that side at the top of the engine if that fine then yeah sump gasket

Put a flat head screwdriver between the fog and indicator. That should then pop out the indicator. pull it towards the left side if its the drivers the right if its passenger side. Undo the light bulb connector, next you should see two screws in the centre of the plastic surround. Unscrew these then the surround and fog light should come out as one.

Have to agree i had the same problem on mine, thought it was the starter motor but turned out to be the positive cable from the battery to the starter motor. Cleaned it up and started first time and touch wood has done since (2/3 years ago)

Too right 👍

Im apparently a nutcase having sh!t loads of spares but all i say is im thinking ahead. Rather have the part with me then spend a week finding a part.
