I have just purchased a ecu flasher and software to remap my clio and diagnostic software so will let you all know if this helps mine out.

I have similar problem but with idling on my 172 cup. I have changed plugs to standard and magnecor leads with still no joy. I am getting some ecu remapping software next week with all gear so gonna give that a go see if it makes a difference. Will let you all know and if it does will do some...

My 172 cup runs like a dog at idle all the time but still has all the power through the rev range. Changed plugs, put in Magnecor 8.5mm Leads changed Lambda sensor and still missfires on idle even when hot. Just gotta live with it really.lol

Welcome too Mij And cupster whats your spec mate?

cheers all And with reference to the handling Blue4Ever....... I would say the x5 was near enough on par with the Clio believe it or not.lol Seriously the x5 was excellent and you could throw it about with ease. Most x5 owners dont use it in that way but i like to push all my motors to the...
