Car wont stop reving. Need help.
Well i was driving my 2nd gen today and all of a sudden the car started to rev high without me pressing on the gas. even in neutral the car would keep reving high. The best way to discribe it is, its like an invisible brick sitting on the gas pettle. Can anyone help me out?

If you're unsure disconnect the cable and see if the problem goes away.

cone filter
I had a similiar problem on my old N/a
If you have a cone filter, sometimes they have a metel thing or plastic thing that is supposed to be glued inside... It sometimes comes off and gets sucked into the intake.. i found out by removing the whole intake tube and looking at the butterfly etc... Something is probably stuck in there.. check it out and let me know

sounds like cold start. check that first. the car revs to about 3,000 on start up automatically. search for more info. If its not cold start (which it might not be since it happens while your driving) check and lube the throttle cable assembly (on the firewall behind the VDI manifold if you're NA, intake mani if you're turbo). Sometimes they will stick, especially in the cold.
