I've found the reason why my car is ideling at 1500 - 2000 rpm
cos of idle speed control valve
Being told there can clog up with sh!t. Well its either going to cost me 2 hrs labour for them to Clean it up 9 out of 10 times succesful. Are i can buy a brand new one for extra £70
What shall i do ??
Reason its costing so much its cos its a gsi and u after take manifold off etc to get to it!!
Anyway has anyone else had any problems like this b4 and if so did u solve it with any of the above. Can it harm car when driving it?? I take it its using a lot more fuel as well is this correct??
All help would be gr8
