Citroen C3 c3 - high rev's when the weather's hot...
Variant: 1.4SE
Model Year: 2002
Hi - hope someone can give me a pointer - I drive a Citroen C3 - whenever the weather is hot, and the car's been stood in the heat, the engine idles at very high rev's - Wednesday these hit 3000 RPM - the only way i can stop it running so fast is to pull the accelerator pedal back with my toe.
Can anyone suggest what this might be and the best way to get it resolved.
Thanks.
