Car:
1997 Golf Mk3 VR6
Automatic
127,000kms
Problem:
When the car is up to running temp, air fan on 1 or more, headlights on and the indicator is going. After about 5 seconds stopped at an intersection the cars revs raise 50 - 150 rpm and begins to surge (you can hear the engine and feel the surge through the pedals and steering wheel) to the click of the indicator, the rev gauge moves only slightly up and down (+-50rpm). If i turn off the headlights or indicator the surging stops. This only seems happens when the car is up to running temp and the car angled so the drivers side is higher than the passengers side. This problem has been happening for over a year.
What has been looked at:
Checked for codes with VAG-COM, none found.
Car has been load tested, passed.
Car has been put on a scope, no problems found.
Indicator relay replaced, no change.
Replaced all indicator bulbs, no change.
changed headlight bulbs, no change.
MAF has been replaced about 4 months ago.
throttle body has been clean 4 months ago.
I have the car booked in this Friday so if anybody has any ideas on what could be the problem i would be very grateful to hear them.
