I've got a bit of an issue with my Ford Focus at the moment where you come to a stop and the revs drop passed the normal idle (~800rpm) shudders and then recovers and it then sits happily with no problems. The idle control valve was cleaned by a friend which helped but it still does it, more noticeable when you've got the front/rear screen, lights etc on. I was wondering if there could be anything else which could be causing the problem before buying a new ICV £41 + VAT. Everything is fine until the engine is warmed up as the ECU is in control and keeps the revs at ~1200rpm until warm. You also notice it pulling away from junctions as you need a few more revs otherwise a slight shuddder occurs as well
The other two issues which I've got are half the rear screen not working (bottom half) and a strange slight shake that you can feel through the car when going up hills... I've had all the wheels balanced but the rear tyres are some really crap 'Event' tyres so they may the problem as they're on the back wheels. Therefore, more pressure on the rear wheels when heading up hill so you'd feel the imbalance more and through the car?
