Post by: Chazza12 on 23 January 2017, 06:39:40

Hi ive noticed with the cold weather the engine holds it revs until its warmed up. so when changing gear the revs are high and its slipping when put into gear after about 5 min its back to normal, does anyone know what it could be thanks

Sticky idle control valve or throttle body be the first two things to check...
