Few problems with 99 GTI

  1. #1
    right as of late I have been experiencing random problems with my 106, it all started a week or so ago! one morning I started the car as normal let it idle for a minute or so then set off, then half a mile or so down the road it started to splutter and missfire for a short time then it cleared itself, the next morning I got in the car to start it and it just wouldn't start on it's own, I had to pump accelerator for it to start, so I changed the cts sensor and it seems to drive a little better but hasn't cured the poor starting of the car,

    my 2nd problem is when I aproach a roundabout/traffic lights to stop my car is holding revs at 2000rpm, I have removed idle control valve and cleaned it with carb/choke cleaner, and now it's sitting at 1500rpm but not all the time it's at random times when I stop or slow right down to crawling speeds, would this be a fubbard icv valve?

    can anybody help on these issues? cheers

    what's the difference in coil packs white plug/black plug am I right in thinking white plug is post 2000 and black pre 2000? if so would it make any difference if I fitted a later model coil pack or not?
