Pulsing? When mine is warm and in N the engine will slowly rock the car. It's a V8.
But the needle doesn't move no.05 V8 HSE Bonatti Grey

Only one question, has anyone experienced pulsing revs on idle?
Welcome 8)
Try cleaning the MAF and the throttle body. For the MAF, get MAF cleaner.

Welcome.
I would also try some injector cleaner in the tank and take a look at the air filter. The V8 is pretty reliable, just likes a drink or two

So I have to admit I've had a wobble the last couple of weeks. Have a new company car so I had a little look at something with more oomph for weekends like a SC RRS or Audi V8's.
Took her out today and I just can't do it, I still love it. Booking a service and some remedial bits tomorrow.
