I just got a 1993 Talon Tsi AWD last saturday and I am very happy with it. However, I noticed today it started doing the common 1000-1500rpm surge back and forth. I had this problem on my last fwd and never actually fixed the problem...just kind of made it better with the BISS and a tune-up. This one doesn't do it all the time but it does it enough to be very annoying. When I turn on my a/c the idle drops to a steady 1000rpms and stays nicely without surge. I've noticed that it usually does it early in the day...although I live in texas and it is still very hot, therefore I dont think the temp. is the problem. Also, when I bought the car, there was no change in the rpm pattern, then I changed the oil yesterday (castrol 10w-30) and this morning its my old talon nightmare all over. I know there are some bright dsm minds who have answered this question 15,000 times before so please help me. The engine has 95k and is still in great shape. I was so excited about this finally being my "good" dsm and now this. Please help.
