Cheers

I think its a bit more than that m8,give it a clean it out first, 9 outta 10 times thats all they need.

No i paid i think about £65 for mine from LMF, cleaning them dont really do much they are a little solenoid that controls the amount of air entering the engine at idle and its a sealed unit, you can only clean the plunger, when they go its normally unfixable, try it it might work, i did when mine played up but it did nothing

The bloke who's gonna get it for me if I need it is calling in a favour from a Vauxhall mechanic so not gonna be paying! But I'll give it a clean first!
I just thought it was quite expensive.
Thanks for the quick response!
