astra 14i idel problem

in stead of the car idling at about 10,000 revs it keeps jumping between
15,000 to 20,000... any suggestions welcome...Thanks

 

Stick your fingers in your ears real quick,
cos it's gonna go bang real soooon. !!!

best not start it back up ever again then?

 

All you need to do is to divide your figures by 10, and you'll be all right.
Unless your name is Michael Shumacher.

 

Sorry, but I just couldn't resist do that.

Anyway, to answer the question, it's the computerised
engine management that causing the symptom.

I have a 1.7Dti diesel and had the same thing happen to me.

( very occaisonally, mainly having just left a motorway. )

Usually I just blip the throttle and it settles down,
but yes it was a little unnerving at first.
