I’m having slight troubles with my Corsa, and was wondering if anyone would have any idea on what it is that causing my car to play up.

The problem that I am having is when on tick over, the car drops and gains revs on its own accord. It will be on 800revs but every second or two and it drops to about 500revs.

It feels as if the car is trying to stall itself, but just cant quite do it! I’m not sure if this is a massive issue, I think its more of something that’s just getting on my nerves, as you have to gently touch the accelerator in traffic to stop it from doing it!

It doesn’t always do this either, I started the car this morning, left it to warm up out front and it ticked over fine, only after about Ten minutes of travelling and coming to a stop did it start doing it again!?

If anyone has had this problem with their Corsa and belives they know how to fix it, please let me know J

(corsa gsi)


Other things is I need to have my coilovers set up, I fitted them, and lined the up the best I could going by eye and measurements, anyone recommend a place to get them set up properly ( preferably Hertfordshire) been to a few other places to have tracking done, and every time the do a monkey job of it!?!

More than likely it will be the Idle Control Valve that needs cleaning.

ICV will need recalibrating or may need a new one, EGR perhaps?
