    Idle RPM 2001 Polo

    Would anyone know what the normal idle RPM should be for an automatic 2001 Polo? Mine idles at about 750-800 RPM when in traffic.

    Whats your engine code mate????? Some are as low as 650rpm but this was with the Magnetti marelli set up.
    Engine code - look at your white sticker in your boot

    A few times it stuttered as if it was going to cut out but it hasn't yet. Maybe a dirty throttle body.

    Indeed , but the MAP sensor is prone to getting oily, clean it as well mate will do the world of good. Then readapt the throttle body with VAGcom or the likes
