what car+engine is it? some Fords have tickover controlled by the ECU - some on downshifting, the tourneo i had raised the tickover when reverse was engaged i doubt its the voltage LEVEL, more likely the ECU and/or a sensor change the fuel filter first (get a good one) |

Rev the idle speed up and if it still does it I'd guess it's the alternator or battery. |

Check the battery terminals and the engine/body earth straps. |

with the engine ticking over, put a voltmeter across the battery terminals and see what the voltage does when the hazrds are switched on. |

Will we ever know ? Would be nice when people have problems to let us know what the solution/outcome is for future reference.
