Redlining? fuck you got problems dude lol...



Nah mines only very slight, just going to get a map sensor then everything on the car has been changed literally!

idle control valve can make it rev itself up not sure if its to the redline but mine shot up to about 4k before i switched off the car because i didnt want the shit revving out of it lol, changed mine now its fine:y:

Idle problems and saxos seem to go hand in hand!

If you have looked at the ICV, go for the map sensor next as suggested.

Personally, I would remove the throttle body and everything attached to it.
Clean them all thoroughly with WD40 and reassemble.
That's what I did and mine now idles fine :)

Yeah ive done all that dude, only thing ive not changed on the car in the passed 2 months is the map sensor done everything else, Im getting map sensor tomorrow so im sure it will be that

[ChAdS]

Changed the map sensor and the icv, has changed much at all, so next im thinking coolant temp sensor? But its not giving off a shite reading on the dial? But i shall change it anyway see if that sorts it!

Hi mate. 2 sensors for water temp, one for the guage and one for the ECU. IIRC blue one for the guage. Check it by removing the wiring plug. If the guage goes right up or right down it is the one for the guage. remove th ewiring plug for the green sensor and if the engine goes mental then it is working okay - no change in engine speed lumpiness means it is not doing it's job and needs to be changed.

btw have you checked compression and spark plugs? Also if you have washe dthe engine water might colect in the spark plug wells under the coil pack. Check all pipes for splits to.
