very mild rough idle

[pancholi]

hi, my first post here,

got a 2004 CTT.

all 8 coils changed last week due to one failing and the car being new to me.

there is a very mild "pinking' type of rough idle weather the car is hot or cold.

reading other treads for the possible causes...where can i find

1) the EGR valve

2) idle control valve

3) i know that this is a biggy but where wold i start to check if there is a vacuum issue?

my plan was to remove and clean both the valves with brake disc cleaning fluid/isopropelene.

any other suggestions would be great.

thanks

Do you have any fault codes? The Cayenne doesn't use a idle speed motor but an electronic throttle plate controlled via the DME, it wouldn't hurt to clean it. It's best to use a smoke machine to fault trace vacuum leaks.

Could you be more descriptive about the issue you are having? You shouldn't be having any pinking at idle but only under load.

thanks for the reply..

under load/acceleration no issues after i changed all the ignition coils.

waiting at the lights i can just about feel the car miss a beat. and thats it.

being a new owner there might be just a bit of OCD.

but if the parts are easily cleaned i presume it wount hurt?

sorry what is DME cleang?

cheers
