Hi guys i am a newbie so bear with me please. Recently bought a 51 plate 1.8 petrol with 53000 miles on the clock and a new engine less than a year ago. When we pull up at traffic lights or a junction etc the revs drop right off almost to a stall before settling themselves. Any ideas? On tickover the revs also drop alot if we turn the steering wheel before settling?

If you can blow through it when its removed its fooked...... with no power it defaults to closed position.

I had the same problem not so long back
