Mine seems to do that, especially when it's cold and raining - I'm getting it checked sometime after Christmas before I start Uni again. It hopefully won't be anything major. | |

They can just get sticky sometimes, it's possible if you remove it, give it a good oiling and gently push it back into the housing, it'll cure it. | |

Yeah its an SPI engine (C14NZ). was thinking the ICV maybe, but wouldnt the idle be bad all the time rather than only when cold and only for a few seconds? | |

Could be the idle control valve (located on the front of the throttle body, has a wiring connector going into it). | |

Looking for alittle advice with an idling problem my 1.4 8v has started getting. A couple of weeks ago it started running fairly bad when cold, would be very rough and lumpy and idle at around 750rpm (warm idle) even when cold. It would go back to be perfect once it has warmed up but it was just bad when cold. I ran some engine cleaner though it to see if it would help and it seems to have alittle, but its still not running right when cold. |
