- Thu Dec 06, 2007 1:33 am #32504 I've got the same problem, but it's also idling at about 2000rpm when cold, and 1500rpm + fluctuating from 1400 to 1600 sometimes when warm.

I already cleaned the EACV, but I'm trying another one tomorrow anyway, I think it's to filthy to be cleaned.

If that doesn't work, hell, I think I'll clean my FITV, though it isn't connected to the coolingsystem.

If that doesn't work... I'll start the car, and spray some carburettorcleaner on all the hoses and gaskets, to see if it leaks some air...
Vacuumproblems SUCK! (literally)

Sorry for bringing up an older topic btw :twisted:
