Hi
My GTI-6 is idling much higher than usual. Gets close to 3000rpm when I start it up in the morning and once warmed up the revs tends to keep hunting between 1250rpm and 1750rpm.
A bit of research suggests this is almost certainly the idle control valve.
But one other thing it has started doing is trying to pull away on its own below 2000rpm. For example, on a flat road in sixth, it will go along at 40mph on its own without me even accelerating. I'm guessing this is also a symptom of the idle control valve?
Any help much appreciated!
