Ive been having Idling issues with the car when its hot
not all the time just some times, normally after a run/track session when the car is stood cooling down on tick over with the fans forced running

it would tick over no probs then all of a sudden it would rev up, slow then try to manage then stall

I checked for air leaks with brake cleaner, replaced the Temperature Sensor 1920.K9 with a new genuine item,also changed ICV many times,
but it still did it occasionally.

yesterdays track day it did it again this time i unplugged the PAS pressure switch and it instantly cured the problem

do these switches adjust idle on load?
do they go faulty?
do i need it?
