Hi Warren
Glad it seems to be OK for the moment :)

If it plays up again, you may have to look towards the MEMS ECM.

I can't help it; I'm a pessimist >=(

Can't you just reset the MEMS to sort this out? turn the key to position 2 and push the accelerator pedal to the floor 5 times, wait 20 seconds and then start the engine.

Yep, that will help to a degree but to reset the idle speed adaptions you will need your car T4'd

its back, but less so, and normally just does it for a few seconds and then settles at about 950rpm, i think i'll give that pushing the accelerator to the floor 5 times stunt and pray that it works, ps there is something wrong with the bloody drivers door lock, seems to be slipping sometimes takes a few goes to open, central locking still works fine though, any ideas??

Cheers warren. =P

200 locks? You have remote CDL? There should be no need to use the 'manual' locks, surely?

Otherwise there could be a linkage/latch fault >=(
