  • Idling issue - video inside

    Folks

    I have an idling issue - it is intermittent but usually occurs when the car hasn’t been started for a while.

    Does anyone know what it could be?

    Vanos, ICV, MAF issues, fuelling issues?

    Sounds like a misfire to me? Could be either plugs or coils I reckon.

      Agree that it sounds like a misfire - you normally get some vibration from the engine with a misfire that you can feel inside the car. Are you getting that?

        Sounds similar to mine when one of the exhaust solenoids in the vanos started failing a little - sorted (by my local independent) with a bit of solder.

        Best place to start would be to get it plugged in to diagnostics wouldn't it? That should indicate which way to go with identifying and sorting it
        Not actually in the least bit fat
