Low idle & V bad paint



  Clio Extreme 3
Ever since iv had my clio (04 1.2 16v with the later engine), when warm, it idles around 500rpm which seems around half of what it should be.

One day it threw a hissy fit and started missing badly and backfiring and felt like it was running on 2 cylinders (thought it was the usual coil pack gone, but a new set of plugs fixed it!)

Anyone know what causes the low idle?

Also, its got the pearl black paint, and its absolutely shocking! all you can see on it is swirl marks and scratches it looks terrible, is this just my car or has anyone else got this paint with the same problem?

Cheers, Jon
