The rough running and elevated revs at idle is a limp mode reaction to the dodgy feed back from the pedal.We put it down to the fact that in all the time Ross has owned the car its never been over 1/4 throttle, that was until he lent it too his Mum. The car obviously freaked out over the way Ross's Mum drives and now its in limp mode. Accel pedal sensor looks like a biacth to replace as the pedal box assembly has to come out to remove it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think after I tightened all of the IC pipes when changing the coolant, an air leak might have been fixed up. Anyway we'll see how we go. Thanks for the ideas guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEXXED Banned Banned 910 Member For: 12y 2m 4d Gender: Male Posted 23/11/12 11:42 AM Share Posted 23/11/12 11:42 AM Can a faulty TPS allow the car to hold vehicle speed when getting off the accelerator pedal and in some cases after slowing to 30kmh/r odd and getting off the brakes the car will slowly make it's way up to speed again under it's own steam,no pedal input at all.
