Little sis just phoned to say that the revs on her Clio are going up and down at idle.
What could be the cause of this? O2 sensor perhaps?

It’s a 97 1.2 DIET.

She is sneaking off to Dundee on Saturday morning, so a quick fix may be in order.

It only happens when cold.

If I disconnect the sensor will the car work semi normally?
