Hi,

I have a 06 GPS 1.9 and i am getting a really poor idle and hesitation in 1st, 2nd, 3rd gears when driving steady.

There is no loss in power and no engine management lights.

Here is the catch:

I never get the rough idle or hesitation when the outside temperature is below 10 degrees. Also the rough/lumpy idle disappears after driving for a few minutes and only reappears after the car has been sat for a while.

The hesitation never happens when i drive the car hard, only under slight throttle.

I have had this problem over the last two summers and have put up with it because it disappears in the winter. But now it is really starting to p**s me off. Any help would be much appreciated. (y)
 
Hmm, :confused: i wonder if this is similar to the issue mines having (1.9 Mjet too)
Mines in the garage now being looked at ... will post the diagnosys after i get it back ...

You getting the "coolant Temp exceeded" warning when you start at all ????
