Chaps,

After reseting the ECU do you have to perform the Idle learn procedure?, doesnt the car eventually learn idle?

If it doesnt how long do you hold it at 3000rpm's for?

Cheers

 

After I changed the battery, I didn't do anything special to get it to re-learn idle. I probably shouldn't have driven it straight away though, it did stall when I first came to a stop. Probably best get it started, just use enough throttle if needed to prevent it stalling when it first tries to idle, then just leave it for 5 mins or so.

 

This is a procedure in the workshop manual.

But i think it learns idle if you dont follow the procedure???

 

You don't.

Idle learn requires that you start the car and let it idle until the radiator fan has switched on and off twice, then switch the engine off. That's it.

HTH

Chris.

 

Ok thanks for that.

 

Search or read the signature AJ!

It will learn itself, or you can let it sit for 2 fan cycles.
