Hi there
I am having issues with my 1.8 golf 1 CTi.
Everytime I limit the gear the airscrew on the throttle keeps popping out.
Any idea as to what to do with that, because if I tighten it too much then the idle drops and I know it controls the idle.
I just want to drive fast without having to worry about the airscrew popping out.
Please help

Try putting some lock tight ...if that don't help try to put a nut on the screw to lock it

Hitting the limiter doesn't help with driving fast though

Vibrations on motor???
That screw should have an o-ring on it to seal and that also helps that it does not adjust itself. Replace the o ring.

You can also dab a bit of locktite thread locker on the threads to help keeping it where it should be.

Re: Golf 1 CTI
Maybe the motor is telling u that 5500rpm should be the limit
