Idle mania!




Why can't things just STAY fixed? I guess it's cause we like to get out
and USE our cars, huh?


After a ~40 minute interstate cruise I came to a stop and my idle would
not drop below 2000K. Actually, that's exactly where it was stuck!
Approximately 2 weeks ago it went up to about 1200, which was fine by me
at the time...

This morning when I fired it up, the idle was at 1500, and after it warms
up, it slowly creeps up to 2000 again. Help me!

I checked the throttle adjustments on the throttle body, and everything
was already adjusted as far as it would go..(perhaps the previous owner
had probs, too?) I've had this baby since July.

Has this anyone had this happen to them, or any pointers? Do I need to
replace the throttle body?

The idle is perfectly stable, it doesn't waver at all. (ie. it's not
hunting up and down as seems to happen often w/ VW's...)

Any insight is appreciated!
