mrxs Posted December 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 cheers! First problem is that, when I rev the engine from idle, when the revs come down they drop to 500 then back up to 950. Sometimes they start bouncing up and down by them selves also! been told to clean the Throttle Body!!??!! Second proble: Starter motor makes a funny "goose noise" after it's started! appently, it just needs a clean! Third problem: Battery was flat every morning! I've now sorted this thanks to a new Bosch battery from GSF car Parts, £47 later! 4th Problem: Apparently, this isn't a problem! Electric wing mirror switch controls both mirrors when set to RIGHT, and just the left mirror when set to LEFT! Like I said, i've just found out this is how they are! So really, there's only 2 problems now! The Idle/Revs problem and the starter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetrolDave Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 VAG-COM almost certainly won't tell you anything about the starter problem. So that leaves only the idle/revs that VAG-COM will tell you anything about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
