[Mk2] [Turbo] Rev 3 turbo - Intermittent low idle, misfire, and hesitation.

Post by Nij »

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone could shed some light on a problem I'm facing with my rev 3 turbo.

The car runs absolutely fine from cold, however once it gets up to temperature the car begins to lose revs and idles low. In addition to this, the car has an intermittent misfire and hesitation on the initial build up to boost.

There are no error codes to show, and I have checked the spark plugs and replaced the HT leads with no sign of improvement.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
