Post by Digital_Import »

Whenever i shift into neutral the car rev's fairly high at 2000rpm, when i put it back in drive or park it goes down back to normal, also when starting the car up from cold it cant keep a steady idle and just stalls and turns off. any clue wats going on here??? :( my fto's been one problem after the next :'(

you can also try an ECU reset.

just unplug the battery for 30 mins, and conenct again let it idle for 15 mins and see if it helps
