put your hand down by the throttle body and see if you can feel a leak. you will most probably find that a gasket has gone somewhere or you havent tightened something down fully. | |

The management lights on because the ecu has completely closed the idle valve, and its still idling too high.... | |

get some carb cleaner and spray it round them bits with car running will help find any air leak | |

if you have taken the egr off then yes but if its still there then not really needed.id say its around where i said earlier as they only need a small leak to do what yours is doing. | |

new inlet gasket went on the manifold to the block and from the powerbox to the manifold | |

air leak from the map sensor or between the powerbox and inlet manifold. | |

on the inlet manifold or on the pipes that come off the powerbox would you think. just would like to track it down to a certain thing that may be causing it | |

There will be an air leak around the inlet somewhere, Steve X16XE had exactly the same problem. | |
