    ok, what happens is pretty much when i start the car i need to give it a bit of gas to get the revs up and keep the car from stalling.

    whats the most likely cause for this ?

    thank you in advance.

    check the batt isnt near flat...

    i remember my mates car we had to do that because his batt was half flat and the altenator was draining alot of current

    AAC valve and Air Regulator - test as per FSM.

    Make sure the connectors are clean and tight, diassemble and service both units as per tech article(s).

    are you using high octane unleaded? a bottle of injector cleaner might sort it out. I had a similar problem once.

    yeah, i'm discovering how good a deal i actually got every time i drive her.
    took her to the local auto1 to pick up some oil, coolant and a few little things.
    found a few different service stickers throughout the engine bay, its already had a 200k service done and got a new radiator in 2007.

    got myself some penrite hpr 10 oil, big bottle of coolant, the air regulator cleaner and a sort of injector cleaner that also cleans the fuel system as well as the injectors.
    going to change the oil and coolant tomorrow morning and i'm waiting till i have to fill up again before i try the injector cleaner.

    when i picked it up the dealership put in half a tank so i'm guessing its e10, i topped it up with premium on the way home and will only fill it up with shell premium from now on.
