Chemarrie Member 58 Member For: 12y 1m 1d Gender: Female Location: Blacktown Posted 31/12/12 10:47 PM Share Posted 31/12/12 10:47 PM I own a xr6t 2004 ba and the idle is nuts it randomly turns off when I pull up to the lights ect and idle revs up and downI replaced spark plugs ,I got the second coil replaced and the throttle body is supposedly not dirty.The guy who replaced my coil told me to get it tuned.I have a capa tuner but wondering will this work and what is the price for someone to plug it in. As I got quoted a price starting from $500 upwards to tune without my capa tuner as they dont like to use them he told me.I was also told it could be a vaccum leak but bloody hell who knows lol.I read a million blogs and have found about 80% of people have the same idleing problem and it never fully gets fixed in most cases.Thanks =)PS: Its a manual aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in Auburn if you want me to retension the exhaust and turbo and check the other usual suspects. I have the BA manual also. Won't take long maybe an hour.
