scott81 Member 17 Member For: 16y 9m 1d Gender: Male Location: perth WA Posted 10/11/09 12:08 PM Share Posted 10/11/09 12:08 PM Had mine serviced at ultratune today and got a throttle body clean and for now prob fixed. Got it done at ford cost me $120 and it didnt fix the prob, they didnt clean it good enough or maybe didnt do it at all. Cost me $25 at ultratune, cant believe the price difference.

bertis Member 30 Member For: 15y 4m 18d Posted 28/01/10 06:04 AM Share Posted 28/01/10 06:04 AM Same issue here guys I will try cleaning my throttle body out tonight.The problem was not really there when I had the 10psi generic capa tune running on the car.... But as soon as I loaded up the stock tune it had this fluctuating rev problem... especially when the lights are turned on or the voltage is dropped slightly....

Napalm Member 25 Member For: 20y 1m 17d Posted 30/01/10 12:13 AM Share Posted 30/01/10 12:13 AM Guys I have had the same problem on and off for some time. Have a BA XR6T 5 spd manual with 10psi edit. It only happens at idle. Tune was done by C & V who have recommended a new throttle body. It would have to be an electrical issue surely? Is generally worse when lights/aircon etc is on. Would this be a regulator issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
