Sorry if this is in the wrong place I'm new here.

I'm just wondering if anyone has had the same problem as me.

A few months back my 1.2 15 plate acenta qashqai had it's accelerator pedal replaced because it kept increasing revs to around 2000rpm when in neutral (to the point the engineer was driving along at 30mph in neutral and the revs not dropping). It doesn't seem to have happened since but today it went up to 2000rpm when I was at a full stop again.

I'm guessing there's something else wrong with it if anyone has any suggestions?

Thanks

Straight off the bat it sounds like either a position sensor attached to the throttle pedal, or the input to the ECU is scrambled.
