Ford Focus Zetec 2001 over revving whilst changing gear

[Framps47]

I have a Focus 2L 16v Zetec and it holds the revs when changing gear. Any ideas what could be causing this? Thanks

Sticking throttle?

Are you used to older cars - lot of modern cars are very slow to drop the revs

I've got a 2004 1.6. My throttle pedal has a fked spring. Have a check of it, it might be a common issue.

In my case it isn't really a problem but I can see how it could be if the problem was worse.

VSS or ICV,common problem on the Focus.

It's not the throttle. I have had either the VSS or the ICV changed but not sure which. Will check with my mechanic. Thanks for the advice

I've had the ICV changed. What is the VSS and would changing this stop the revs?
