ecu remap
basically my car is a bit lumpy on idle, sometimes its ok sometimes its not ... and the emission's are a little high which is due to my open induction air filter
changed all the engine mounts to sort the idle shake out and have had a slight improvement but nothing great
not looking for performance wise from it but if thats included great lol ...
would a remap sort this out and how much on average would i be looking at for this
cheers woodsy

new fuel filter
dont think its the injectors as the power is always there its only the idle the problem
doesnt have leads, thinking the coil pack but again no loss of power or engine management light on
clutch doesnt make any differance down or up
wouldnt touch shitreon
if i got it on a diagnostics machine would that tell me ... my mate has one so would cost me fook all

Just a couple of ideas for you - have the cam timing checked, and remove and clean up the idle control solenoid
