Idle problem Rapide 2013

[pete1212]

I was wandering of any tecnicians could help and advise what they would do.


after annual service car is rapide with 21500 miles.

Dealer had the car twice for this problem, 2 days and its now 5 days car is at the service, and they are waiting from Aston Martin UK.
No error code with Obd said the dealer. they verified all connections air boxes, throttle body is clean and they did some reprogramations.

I am not accelerating, the car does this alone.

my oil cap is loose too (was not changed during last service 15 days ago) :

Long shot but there is a pressure sensor in the power steering line to lift the idle when under load ,might be worth disconecting it and see what happens.

On 3 occasions the dealer had the car 9 days, they removed and put back /change the air filter, ( but it was done with annual service 15 days ago) nothing else was ever changed. No oxygen sensor no valves, no mass air flow, nothing was updated, they said its clean, but clean does not mean it works well. disapointed at bringing the car again and when i think than AML UK warranty is helping them.

this morning it almost stalled after starting and then it re accelerate like this video.

Is it a long job changing the spark plugs? why the warranty does not send an idle valve, mass air flow and oxygen sensor for the dealer to try the first time?

the first time i brought it in, the car was not accelerating alone, it was for a high idle, its when i got it back after the first trial.
