Hello Gurus in the house,

I need help with my car. The engine revs up and down all by itself. The effect is exactly like someone gently pressing down on the gas pedal and then letting up, over and over. This effect is most notable when the car is parked, but also occurs when stopped for red lights, or even during low-speed driving (under 35 mph or so).

The car in question is a Nissan X-Trail 2008 model.

@moderator, pls unban morningsta. not sure what offense was committed seriously.


Check the turtle-cable and adjust the slow running. Make sure to tune the Revolution per minute below 500 rev/min or max 1000 rev/minute

Are u referring to sparodic jumping of your speedometer ? If yes then I am almost 100% that the issue is your speedometer sensor.
I had a similar experience with my Acura legend . Online Acura mechanic gave me the solution . I went to ladipo , bought the sensor , gave my mechanic to fix. They were waiting to laugh at me cos all their guess work had failed so far . To our surprise, it fixed the issue and the movement stabilized.
best of luck

the word is using for the problem you have with your car is (missing) your car is doing missing, in missing 2 problems are mostly conducted
1: if engine plugs are expired
2: if the gas is dirty you filled from gas station
you are advised to go to the mechanic and ask him that your car is doing missing please repair it....... #Okanyidudu

The car is possessed by "Ologborunmiri". It is a wicked demon that hides in old rickety cars. grin Take the car to The Synagogue Church of all Nations.

Re: His Car Revs Up & Down By Itself by ebuks4ever(m): 1:42pm On Jun 16, 2015
This has to do with air flow. Have them check your MAF-Air flow Meter. And also check the Idle Air control valve. But most importantly check for error codes to reduce the guess work.

You put Premium Motor Spirit and you're asking whether it is possessed. Of course it is.
