1.8 revs falling too low - picknmix
Going up through the gears, particularly between slow gearchanges, if the engine isn't revved hard the revs drop below tickover making for a jerky gearchange. Also when slowing down and taking the car out of gear, the revs fall to as low as 450rpm before picking up to normal idle. Any ideas please?

Check the EGR valve - when they stick (slightly) open, it is only noticeable at tickover.

Thankyou. Do you know where it is on this and if it's repairable?
