ok, got the idle sorted on my car. ticks over at 800rpm 
was a bolt loose on the throttle body to velos inlet.
However since fixing this the car seems to stutter (as if its flooding) when in 1st and 2nd when i boot it. At idle from cold it also smells of fuel from the exhaust what could this be? plugs are a little black (slightly over fueling) but emissions test said it was all good. any ideas on what it is?
i was thinking oxygen sensor or lamda (*sp) sensor????

this si same problem with mine. i got a lamda sensor and it has made it better duing the day but when its cold, it mis-fires and idles hig.
im going to have a look at my plugs today and giv em a clean to see if that works.
ill also check the bolt to see about the idli-ing.
