Hey fellas

i got an issue that just arised last week and it's driving me crazy !

car will cold start and idle fine, hot idle is fine but when I'm driving if I down shift and the rpm is over 2000rpm and then pop in neutral it will stay idling at 2000rpm

sometimes it might fall back down to 1000rpm after 5seconds or so but most of the time it will stay there until I pump the throttle then it will settle to 1000

if the car is idling and I pump the throttle again it will idle at 2000rpm until I give the throttle a quick jab the it will settle

 

im running a hypertune plenum and 90mm throttle body, gave the throttle body a clean afew days ago and did a tps reset still no change

also did a pressure test and seemed good

I noticed driveability issues around the 2000rpm like it surges too

i spoke to hypertune and they said to send them the throttle body to test (incase shaft seals are leaking, it's only 2 years old) and to rebuild if necessary 

 

if anyone has any other ideas I can try that would be great

 

thanks

What are your plastic throttle spring retainers like? I had a similar issue and it turned out being the plastic retainers had perished and the springs were binding

edit: scratch that I've just read you are running a single throttle.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
