    Idle Increase when coming to a standstill

    My car will most of the time increase about 50rpm or so, after i have come to a standstill. I can hear and feel the increase. The fuel consumption metre jumps from the usual 0.9L/100Km to 2.0L/100Km. It increases for a period of about 7-8 seconds and then goes back down to normal.

    I think this happened after I cleaned the air filter which was a carbonio with a cone pod filter. Incidently, the filter wasn't changed for 2 years or so.


    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks a lot.

    Justin

    idle problems can sometimes be the MAF, so hopefully you didn't play around with it like i did...

    Try turning your A/C off and see if it still happens...
