revs drop then pick up
 

when i come to a stop sometimes the revs drop down and the car nearly cuts out then picks up again back to normal,changed the icv but its still the same any help please.thanks ste

If its only when cold it could be temp sensor

Or if it all the time, then it could be MAP sensor Ste. :y:

only does it when its warmed after about 10 mins.will get both sensors and try that.thanks sam

Got the exact same problem with my vts

Changed temp sensor, icv, lambda

Next goin to try a spare coilpack then swap the map over to

Let me know if u get yours sorted

same problem here, cleaned the icv still problems.

my mates got a vts engine in his breakers yard will take all the sensors of and see if it sorts it and let you no if it works.

Update. Had a spare map sensor so braved the storm outside and changed it over.

Took the car for a 15 mile drive and left it to idle for a while to. Made sure it was warmed upm

So far it has solved the problem no dipping in revs when braking hard and idle ticking over fine.

Will update in a couple of days once I have used it more goin to work and back and see if it comes bck.

the sensor change make any difference?

drove to work this morning 10 miles also got stuck in traffic for a while so car was warm

still ok no revs dropping and idle better to not dipping down so looks to have solved my problem with that sensor being changed.

if your having the same issue might be worth getting a cheap one of here to swap over and try

Its back heading home from work this evening and once warm started to do it again.

Got another spare coilpack so goin to try tht

Anyone else had any joy or suggestions ?

not had chance to change any sensors today,but been over 150 miles today and it never did it,to be honest its not bad when it does it,its just that if i sell the car then i would like it to tick over perfect,but asked a mechanic who works on saxos and he said most do it and its nothing to worry about unless its that bad,and mine only does it now and again and its only a slight flicker for about a second,and if you ask me loads of saxos do this anyway as every one i have owned have done this.the joy of owning a saxo:clapping:
