vtr reving probs

[darren180]

i have a saxo vtr on a R plate. when driving normaly the revs seem to hold for a spilt second when changing gear. if you hold clutch down it drops down to tick over. if it revs high i.e over 4000 its fine. any ideas.;)

[kiss_my_vtrsssse]

what do you mean, so when your changing gear it dont drop strate away ??

[darren180]

yes it holds the revs for about a second.

im not sure if normal, what year car, i wudda thought normal, cus when chnging gear u dont wnt revs to drop, doin that it allows you to keep goin with out losing speed when changing gears

[kiss_my_vtrsssse]

mk1 ???

[darren180]

its an R reg 1997. it does hold up more than normal.

[darren180]

if its left in gear and you take your foot off the go faster pedal, the engine keeps reving at the same speed for a second or two then the engine starts slowing down

isit jerking ???? im trying to work out what you mean lol

so when you change gear it dnt drop down as kwik as normal, but when you put foot down it goes then sorta hessitates

[darren180]

when you put your foot down it goes normaly right up to the red line.
if you are in (lets say fourth gear) about 3000 revs then going to change up
to fifth. the revs will hold at 3000 for about a second or two (when the clutch is dipped) and then drop as normal

[darren180]

throttle and cable seem ok.
was on the way to work early this morning and when the car was cold
didnt seem to hang the revs up, once warmed up started the prob again.
