Model : VW Golf 1400cc 8 valaves Injection 60BHP 5 Speeds Manual

An unusal thing as just begin happening when starting the car.
The engine goes up to 3000 rpm for about 5 seconds and than goes right back to idle speed around 1000 rpm.
This thing can also repeat itself while driving with a cold engine, and will stop completely when the engine is in normal working temps.
When starting up the A/C even if the car is cold this malfunction will never happen.

Besides that the starting of the car is very difficult and it usauly takes the starter about 5 seconds to start the engine.

Thank you for your time,

Liran

Hi it sounds like the engine tems sensor is at fault, this would cause poor cold starting and runing thay cost about £15.
hope this helps
