carrots 1 Posted October 29, 2010 ive noticed today my 1.8 16v is getting warm again :bad-words: ,i also noticed it seems to be ticking over a bit fast even when warm.1 of the pipes off the metering head has a bit of a split in the black pipe bit,could this be the cause Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
volksworld13 0 Posted October 29, 2010 an air leak would cause it to idle a little higher,check all vacume hoses for splits and if they are perishing. replace if needed,getting warm? what temps? at idle when driving? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
