dont worry about it, its just the xe engine not liking filters, it will be much more driveable at low revs without the cone filter but you will loose the induction roar.

you got a K&N filter on it? or similar filter? if so it will just be when it sucks a bit hot air in and it hesitates. Mine used to do it until i fit a viper kit or could use standard air box or bmc enclosed etc etc

It sounds like a stepped motor problem. Its as if it doesnt know where the throttle should stop when at idel

Had the xe running well for about two week or so now starts mint etc


one thing it has started doing a bit is when in really low revs and if your in traffic person slows down in front so take foot off accelerator and then place back on again when they get there arse in gear its hard to explain it kind of chugs a bit but as soon as foots back on accelerator its fine doesnt do it if i drive and stop at lights like going straight to neutral

i was thinking afm being a bit of an ass ?
