HI iv'e got a sunny gti uk (SR20DE), and ive read the posts regarding this but just want to clear up what the fault is ,my car is jumpy on low rpm ( 1000-2500 RPM) , have been told its lambda sensor, vac leak and plugs and leads ?

Can anyone confirm what is wrong or has anyone had this problem before ?
being a bit skint dont want to go start splashing the cash if i dont need to !!

How long has it been doing this? Have you changed anything?

It might be a spark issue. I would re check the gap on your plugs and make sure there are ok and or within specs first. This could be a cheap fix so I would start there.

i sold the car a year agoand now i,ve bought the car back,so dont know when its started, before i got it the plug leads where snapped , and it didn't run so i changed the leads and starter to get it running , will check plugs asap

have been told its the lambda going down
