My Golf 4 (1.6L) has some strange idling problem. Sometimes as the car drops to idle (take the car out of gear/or clutch pressed in), the revs tend to drop below the idle point and then the car compensates for this and tries to correct itself creating a seesaw type of effect as the revs bounce above and below the idle point. This sometimes goes on for a few seconds before settling (after it has settled it is fine). Even worse though is that sometimes (as the car is taken out of gear/or clutch pressed in) the revs drop below the idle point and the car is too slow to react and just dies (this can also happen while the revs are bouncing around as above). This is most frustrating as it only happens sometimes (typically it didn't do it when i took it to the dealer). I have taken it back to the VW dealer who has changed the MAF and air temperature sensors but still the problem persists.
The diagnostic software (VAGCOM) only reported an intermitted fault with the MAF (which was replaced).
Just want to get any ideas as to where the fault could be..
Any feedback appreciated.
