Re: Stalling & hunting idle
Check for vacumm leaks warm up engine poor water on intake gaskets and injector seals if engine stalls or runs worse its sucking in the water thers your leak.
if not clean throttle plates and IAC motor
same problem when it reaches normal operating temperature it starts to hunt and shake like theres no tommorow, it stops hunting when it gets to about 1500rpm and accelerates fine there has been no loss of fuel ecconomy a few people have sudgested the fly by wire but im not sure?
it is a volkswagen transporter tdi build date 1/2000
Hi
Can you clarify the year of registration of your GTi please?
Meanwhile, if it is fitted with an O2 sensor then it could well be the problem, particularly if it only happens once the engine is hot, and only at idle with maybe a little at part throttle, but accelerates without any problems.
Very best regards
