Technical explanation

The cause of the problems is one of the potentiometers (pot.1) in the throttle body. The throttle will then make brief movements in the closing direction. In this case, irregular idling may be noticeable or there may be surging when driving on motorways. The fault is not significant from a safety standpoint and does not affect exhaust emission control.
