Hi Guys

Sorry for posting this, search not working for me I am afraid.

Was out in the car yesterday, a good run and the idle speed rose to 2k, eventually dropping to 1.5k.

Has anyone come across this before and any idea why? My first thought was a damaged throttle cable as I know a few people who have had these break?

Any thoughts welcome.

Thanks

Richard

Hi Ken

How you doing?

Only done about 1500 miles since last service and yes it maintains that speed even after blipping.

Suspect Mr Taylor will be getting a call tomorrow frown

Mine used to stick when the crank speed sensor was knackered. Fairly cheap fix about £70 inc fitting. Might be lucky and just need a diagnostic re-set.
