Idle problems - Nick_the_arab - 21:st-Jul-2018

Had this problem for a while , it’s the 1.7 110 sports tourer .
Basically the revs move up and down at idle and vibrates , it’s like a weird heart beat but feels like it’s about to stall every time it drops
Anybody know why it does it , had full service couple month back but done it for ages
Many thanks

1.7cdti are common for the suction control valve to cause engine surging.
