Where is the ICV please chaps. A piccy would be grand.

 

I'll go take 1 brb

 

 

A true gent.. Cheers.

 

No problem, if their is a problem with it i think i have a spare one (if required of course )

 

Well I've just been to have a look. All pipes and wires are present and okay. I also unplugged the sensor whilst on tick over and that mimmicked what happened on the road earlier today. Is it fubared?

 

Anyone know?

 

Have you tried the usual 'clean it and reset the ecu' routine?

 

Undo the 2 small screws & pull out the connector part of the sensor. Also remove the housing off the manifold (4 bolts & 3 rubber hoses). Clean the housing with a suitable chemical spray. Also clean the circular disks that sits inside the manifold once the iscv is removed. Then refit.

Just keep a note of the position of the connector via the 2 screws. Mark it with a permanent pen or something. You may have to adjust it slightly to get the correct idle speed once its all refitted. Make sure you engine has reached normal temps before finalizing its position.

If it still plays up then its time for a replacement.

Ticky

 

Will try that tomorrow. Cheers.

 

Rightho..

Took the cap off and found some small metal shards between the shaft and the motor, probably been jamming. Cleaned them out so we'll see how it goes.

 

Okay no different. It still shows the same fault code. It seems to play up only after I have been on boost?!?

Time to change it.

Could it be more than one problem?
