I was getting a high idle of 1500rpm here and there when the car was warm. I cleaned out the idle control valve with some carb cleaner and the idle had stopped going high but the car did stall a couple of times. Now the car has gone back to idleing high again :cry:

 

I think the base idle is fine, when it's not high it sits at 750 rpm. Should i take the valve off and give it a really good clean?

 

Would cleaning the intake / butterfly's help ??

Not having much luck are we? yours reminds me of mine :(

prob after prob.....

 

 

you done a leak test recently?

and you sure the tps is set properly?

I had this recently and next to the TPS there is a small black electrical block, check the connections, I did mine and it fixed the problem permantently.

I know, not sure why these little things keep happening ?

 

I did a boost leak test about 1500 miles ago and will be messing with the lines this weekend so i'll check.

I'll take a look, thanks!

if you have never cleaned the throttle bodies do it, they could be coked up!

 

since cleaning the idle control valve gave an improvement, why don't you replace it with a rebuilt one and see what happens?

Ok, i'll get a tooth brush and give it all a good clean!

shoot some injector cleaner in there :D

My idle was also erratic! Fixed it by cleaning black connector and yellow connector situated around the idle valve and the auxilary air valve. Maybe worth a try. Made all the difference to mine. Hope this helps:hyper:
